Wow, there has been a lot of great work done on SVG in the last  
week.  A few recent accomplishments:

#1  SVG Testing Tools are now available.  DrawTest and svg2png are  
now in CVS!  (See the Wiki.)

#2  SVG builds are *greatly* simplified.  SVG no longer requires  
Bison 2.0 (thanks pojo2).   There are also several build scripts such  
as build-webcore-svg to make building really simple.  (Full  
instructions on the Wiki.)

#3  You don't even have to build your own copy of WebCore+SVG!  We  
now have SVG nightly builds thanks to bdash, so just download the  
latest nightly:

See http://wiki.opendarwin.org/index.php/WebKit_plus_SVG for lots  
more info (including screenshots).

If you've been waiting to test SVG in WebCore... now's your chance!  ;-)

Happy hacking.
