This looks like the quartz backend was disabled in the cairo C library,
not like a gtk2hs problem. I don't know how ports work, but

  http://trac.macports.org/browser/trunk/dports/graphics/cairo/Portfile

defines a 'quartz' variant that enables that backend. Another idea is
to reinstall pango.

HTH,
