patch

Unortunately I could not do 'make distcheck' because "52 of 87 tests failed".
Why distcheck does that anyway?

another patch

It passes 'make distcheck'; the generated file doesn't get into tarball; it gets
generated in a fresh tarball (and in not-fresh source dir too, of course); i.e.
seems to be working.

I don't see the benefit of doing it in the Makefile.  It just needs to not
recreate if the contents are not changed, but that can be done in configure.

I'm actually getting rid of cairo-features.h.in template...

Just doing it the configure script sounds great to me.

I wouldn't care if this were with a .in template plus a conditional copy or if
the file were just generated "manually", (which would have the nice side effect
of getting rid of the ugly blank lines currently in cairo-features.h).
