Yes, this is the wrong fix. :)

ForeignObjects are a RenderBlock, but they should know how to find their
containing SVGRenderRoot, which is also a RenderBlock.  For SVG this is
slightly tricky becuase SVG doesn't use the concept of "containingBlock" like
the rest of the rendering tree does.  SVG cares about "nearestViewportElement"
instead.   There is some missing logic in SVG here.  Whatever it is that thinks
it wants the foreignObject's containing block might not actually.  Or if it
does, it wants the containing SVGRenderRoot (which it should be able to
find...).  The "return 0" that you're returning should really be:
ASSERT_NOT_REACHED();
return 0;
