Adobe SVG for Mac OS X was last updated in late 2001.  If Adobe was interested
in us continuing to  load this plug-in then I'm sure they would have updated it
since then.

A better solution would be to prevent any plug-in from claiming the SVG MIME
type, in a similar fashion to how we prevent plug-ins from claiming HTML.
