To any BY-SA licenced work, yes.
Unless you're
talking about a CC-BY-SA produced work created solely from an ODbL
database, anyway.
See thread title. ;-)
Which will be interesting when someone releases the entire database as
an SVG file.
Do you mean that they distribute a database as an SVG file in some way, or
that they render the database as a map in an SVG file?
I'm not sure what the difference is.
In the former, the contents of the SVG file would be a database and
would be a Covered Database under the ODbL. In the latter it would be a
piece of cartography or graphic design and so would be a Produced Work
under the ODbL.
The ODbL can tell the difference.
The latter describes how you accomplish the former.
It does not. The latter describes how you distribute a Produced Work,
the former describes how you distribute a Covered Database.
