[gtkada] Eeeeeeeeeeeeeek!

[Chris Sparks]

Another update.  Since the examples out there are sparse with regards to 
pango, I did find one.

I noticed that our binding to pango is incomplete.  What I noticed 
missing was:

PangoLayout  <https://developer.gnome.org/pango/stable/pango-Layout-Objects.html#PangoLayout>  *       pango_cairo_create_layout           (/|cairo_t  *cr|/);

When I tried to create it and import it I get seg faults.

Any suggestions?

Chris
