Here's an update of the link: http://p2pmud.com/quarantine/testsvg.html

Bill, the <svg> tag in that testcase is not in the SVG namespace, so it's completely ignored. The <image> tag is therefore the HTML <image> tag. In other words, your testcase actually doesn't include any SVG, despite appearances.

I have made a pure svg test case which demonstrates the error: http://p2pmud.com/quarantine/tst.xml

Not yet implemented. There is a XXX reminder in the nsSVGImageFrame.cpp code for it.
