I do not think so. I think we have an infinite loop problem somewhere in webkit's SVG related code. I just am not sure where, but I can state definitively that I can reproduce the problem with both the 2.2 and 2.3 branches. 

The reason I think the issue is in QtWebKit is because I can view the SVG file in the example svgviewer provided in Qt examples folder just fine after removing the HTML related tags from the testcase file.

Also I have no problem viewing the testcase in Chromium (v22.0.1229.79 (158531)).
