In recent version of R (3.3.1), there is R_ext/Connection.h but no R_ext/RConn.h.
This is somewhat from the situation for "RConn patch", but connection is integrated into the main R source. It should be worthwhile to make them work with Cairo again.
By just matching the types, the code seems to work, though I have not tested very thoroughly yet and there seems to room for cleaner codes. Nonetheless, I would show you this code as this could be some starting point to support again.

Thanks for the contribution! Unfortunately, some other CRAN members still don't consider the connection API official enough to be used on CRAN, so I won't merge this until it is allowed on CRAN. However, it is certainly very useful and merges cleanly so anyone who wants this functionality can use it.
