I have some SVG files that use width and height to match other images from the same category as well as viewPort to specify a user coordinate system whcih might be different for the different images. According to the spec, specifying preserveAspectRatio="xMinYMin meet", the aspect ratio should be preserved, and the remaining space be padded transparently. The MediaWiki rendering engine does not preserve the aspect ratio but instead stretches the image to fill both dimensions. See http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG11/coords.html#PreserveAspectRatioAttribute
This is fixed in librsvg 2.14; upgrade will fix it.
Ok, action=purge can now be used on an image page to force images to rerender. (Be careful about caching; make sure it reloads the new image!)
