  Hopefully I didn't break anything you are doing for your existing
cross builds. Needless to say, this wouldn't have worked without the AGG
backend.

  I'm sure part of the performance issue is I'm running GTK2 on X11,
which is many more layers of UI code to go through for everything. I'll
try the framebuffer next, after I figure out how to turn off X11 so I
can run from the console.
