The file contains svg format data.
The image loader can load the following directly:
bmp, gif, ico, jpeg, jpg, mng, pbm, pgm, png, ppm, svg, tif, tiff, xbm, xpm,
Of these, LyX recognises the following formats:
bmp, gif, jpg, jpg, pbm, pgm, png, ppm, svg, tiff, xbm, xpm
No conversion needed (from == to)!

Image loading succeeded.

of course the --export-area-drawing option can not have any effect if

Right.
My guess is, that svg support in the image loader is new in QT 4.4 and
hence this option worked with QT < 4.4.
Svg support is not new, it is brought by the QtSvg4 library. AFAIK, we
don't link with this library. My guess is that your distribution (or
you?) explicitely link to it. But maybe you're right that something has
changed in Qt4.4 and that svg is automatically loaded with QtGui. This
needs more investigation...
It seems like you really have to save your svg clipped to the right size.
With the external inset, you can define a conversion method for latex.
As far as LyX-1.6 previewing is concerned, you can make use of the scale
screen option.
