Oh.  Well, that explains a lot.  But that doesn't seem to completely
solve the problem.  When I do that, I get a new error:
org.jibx.runtime.JiBXException: Expected
"{http://www.w3.org/2000/svg}g"; start tag, found
"{http://www.w3.org/2000/svg}defs"; start tag (line 6, col 9)

Changed mapping for SVGRoot:
   <mapping name="svg" class="svg.elements.SVGRoot"
extends="svg.elements.Graphic">
      <structure map-as="svg.elements.Graphic"/>
      <value name="viewBox" field="viewBox" style="attribute" usage="optional"/>
   </mapping>

Do I have to do something to make it an anonymous map-as?
