Fixing bug #10202 meant that cairo-deflate-stream.c became pdf-surface-only. However, the newly added CairoScript backend requires it too. This means that right now the CairoScript backend is not buildable if the pdf surface is disabled, which is no good.
Thanks for the report, it had been fixed sometime in the last couple of years.
