Yes, just use http://cairographics.org

You should also add expat to LIBSVG_DEPENDENCIES for the expat case, and
select the libxml2 package in Config.in if need (so Kconfig is in sync
with the makefile) - something like:
select BR2_PACKAGE_LIBXML2 if !BR2_PACKAGE_EXPAT

Probably because you forgot to add expat to the dependencies, so it
isn't built yet by the time libsvg configure runs.

Ehh, I don't quite follow. BR2_PACKAGE_EXPAT is about libexpat for the
TARGET. It doesn't have anything to do with the cross compiler needing
expat for the host.
