Good idea, that should solve my current problem. The reason for 
having an alias this was that I had a C data type 
(cairo_surface_t) that I transferred into a class and I'm using 
the alias so that I don't need to rewrite the whole application 
at once. Unfortunately I overlooked some code that resulted in a 
seg fault - and I was lost at understanding why.
