Actually, Cairo's default line width is 2.0 units:
http://cairographics.org/manual/cairo-cairo-t.html#cairo-set-line-width
All display modules will use this value until it's explicitly changed.
The cairo driver should either explicitly change the line width to 1
at start-up, or interpret a line width of 0 as meaning 2 units rather
than 1.
There are only a handful of modules which actually change the line
width, namely d.graph, d.path and d.vect. All three modules set the
width using D_line_width() (which takes a double) and set it back
using R_line_width(0).
d.vect and d.graph set the width to a user-specified value, while
d.path sets it to 2 for "bold" lines.
