make: *** [all] Error 2

Workaround is to remove the examples directory from the SUBDIRS variable in both the Makefile and Makefile.am

Make sure you have the libpng headers installed on your system and rebuild Cairo.  Many people consider the fact that Cairo builds without png support without warning to be a bug:
