I don't think this is so bad.  Only "image/svg+xml" support was added by this
patch.  The reference to "image/svg-xml" was only in the test to mimic what the
actual JavaScript did.  How is this different from adding undetectable
document.all support?

It wouldn't be impossible to pull all the WebKit SVG code into a plug-in, would
it?  (That way, if Leopard Safari shipped without SVG support, it could be
added in later--instead of using the WebKit dynamic linking trick.)

Added the GoogleBug keyword for this issue, although as Alexey states in
Comment #6, this would only fix Google's site.
