           Summary: Text smaller than 0.5px not displayed properly
           Product: WebKit

        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.5
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: SVG

or

<svg xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg'>
  <text x='10' y='30'>The two words should be the same size:</text>
  <g transform='scale(15)'>
    <text y='12' style='font-size:0.5px'>TINY</text>
    <text y='24' style='font-size:0.499999px'>TINY</text>
  </g>
</svg>

Both words should be small on the page.  The latter one at font-size smaller than 0.5px is not displayed appropriately.
