Hi,

Ruby-GNOME2 Win32 GUI Installer which contains rcairo-1.2.6
will solve the problem.

http://ruby-gnome2.sourceforge.jp/?News_20070212_1
(ruby-gnome2-0.16.0-1-i386-mswin32.exe)

During installation, checking "Register enviroment variables"
option is recommended.

I'm not sure, but it seems better to uninstall the cairo binaries
you've previously been installed.
