It does work. With my changes (or respectively in aalib) do:
% cd /usr/pkgsrc/graphics/cairo
% make show-options
Any of the following general options may be selected:
        glitz    Enable glitz backend.
 
These options are enabled by default:
        glitz
 
These options are currently enabled:
        glitz
% make PKG_OPTIONS.cairo=-glitz show-options
Any of the following general options may be selected:
        glitz    Enable glitz backend.
 
These options are enabled by default:
        glitz
 
These options are currently enabled:

What do you see?
