Upstream git has a patch for this:
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/cairo/patch/?id=0a5ec9802a39dee240a1a3476af1ef8a7db9b6b3
Comment 2 Lars Wendler (Polynomial-C) (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-02-28 10:19:58 UTC 
The new released cairo-1.8.10 compiles against >=libpng-1.4.0 without needing a patch.
Comment 3 Samuli Suominen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-03-08 09:01:34 UTC 
trivial fix, missing libpng14 before libpng12 in configure.ac
