This appears to fix problems involving Compose, Cairo, and Fontconfig. The idea is to avoid using variables that get defined only via
global

blocks, and switch to a strategy to uses variables that are defined at precompilation time. Here I do that by defining the variables asRef
s, so I can update their contents when they get initialized.Fixes GiovineItalia/Gadfly.jl#1206
