Comment:
I investigated a bit and found that this problem only occurs on some
apps. For instance nautilus is using the svg icons but galeon isn't.

With strace and greping the output for 'svg' I found that nautilus does
indeed open() the .svg files and librsvg, but galeon doesn't and thus
when I try to download a file and the dialog comes up with the file's
mime-type icon, that icon is a .png scaled up and thus very pixelated.
Though galeon does load the svg mozilla plugin and does render the .svg
on its canvas if I browse them.

Eog doesn't render .svg at all now but it did some days ago. Its output
to the console doesn't say anything special. Stracing it I can see that
it does an lstat64() on the .svg files but never calls open() on them.

This only started to happen since the last update but I hadn't updated
for some days so I'm not sure when it changed.
