I believe the problem comes from the fact that the fop1.8.1 release uses
their own SVG support, where they have now moved to using Batik. The FOP
team have not done a release with all the new features in it. I am using a
CVS version because of this and improved layout and font handling.

The question is should we be putting an unreleased version of FOP in the C2
CVS.

I will raise this issue on the FOP dev list and see if a formal release is
planned soon.
