Seems to be a bug in the SVG part in FOP 0.20.5. The attribute is respected in the new SVG transcoder (in FOP CVS HEAD), however. If you only need to convert the SVG into PDF (without any real need for XSL-FO), you can try the PDF Transcoder for Batik. Try the one shipped with the latest Batik release or if this still doesn't help, download the FOP source code from CVS (or using a CVS snapshot) to build the PDF Transcoder yourself.
