Hi Hazen: I have found a good reference on this question. See http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG11/text.html and look for "xml:space". svg.c specifies xml:space "preserve" which is the reason indentation and line endings made a difference with the old code. I think we still want this option (since the user may want some legitimate extra whitespace in his plot labels) so I think the present code (which preserves user white space but makes sure svg.c doesn't add any) is exactly what we want.
