Philipp, You are hitting on a problem we are going to try and address with the SVG working group. We think that the xmlns:xlink attribute should be declared in the attribute list for the root <svg> element (like the xmlsn attribute is), but it is not. Until we get an answer, you can modify the svg10.dtd (in resources/org/apache/batik/dom/svg/resources) and add:
xmlns:xlink CDATA #FIXED "http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" right after: <!ATTLIST svg xmlns CDATA #FIXED "http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" this will take care of the issue for now. I hope this helps.
