I haven't looked in details, but:

    pango: needs C++ for freetype handling
    
    Pango was recently updated to v1.28 as a dependency of webkit, but its
    freetype support has unfortunately been rewritten with parts in C++
    (since pango 1.25), so adjust dependencies of pango and users of it to
    require C++ support.
