Ben:

Correct awesome-2 does not need XCB aware cairo. 

2.3 was released 14 months ago, but having small fixes till now, and is called
deprecated in favor of v3.

Problem with your approach is that awesome v2 is really old, upstream support
might end anytime, and thus is far from Fedora's close-to-upstream. Note that
cairo-xcb is far from being soon-supported upstream (still experimental), that
means we would have awesome-2 for months, if not even years. That's waste of
time, from my POV.
