The security problem with rsvg, at least when called from the command line, 
is that it will honour any external file references in the SVG file.  If you 
generate the SVG yourself, this doesn't apply, because you control any such 
references.

The rsvg version on the Solaris systems (but *not* on Linux) has Wikimedia's 
patch to disable external file inclusion, so it should be safe to process 
untrusted SVGs with that.
