It is similar to BATIK-672, apparently unresolved since 2006-11. I'll see if I can just use the old library that worked and nonetheless keep a recent FOP. If that fails, I'll file a new bug report.
Sorry for another post on this. Just in case other users will run into the same problem:
It appears the problem goes away when placing all images in the base directory. That's an ugly workaround, but an easy one as by chance I have unique filenames. And yes, those SVGs are concerned that contain links to other parts of the image in the same file, be it shading data or mask data.
N.B.: I tried different <base> content in fop.xconf as well as no <base> at all.
