So I had this same problem.  I fixed it with a hack.  If you take a look, on line 29 of rb_cairo_context.c, there is a prototype declaration of cr_get_current_point.

I don't know why that doesn't work; however, if you move the definition of cr_get_current_point above its call in cr_quadratic_curve_to, it will compile successfully.

I'm guessing this was a side-effect of changing the prototype for cairo_get_current_point() which was reverted before the next stable release.
