SVG icons: still a problem

Hi,
I'm still having trouble using SVG icons with the CVS panel; if I do, they cause the panel to crash.  (I've pasted the last message from the month-old thread at the bottom.)

1. I have libsvg and librsvg installed on my system.  (I have svgalib too, but realised that this was an unrelated library.)  I'm running the current CVS (as of last night).  The reverse dependencies show up as follows, so it seems that the panel should be working correctly:

root:andrew$ dep -r libsvg librsvg
media-libs/libsvg:
        WORLD FILE                           media-libs/libsvg
gnome-base/librsvg:
        x11-themes/lila-gnome-0.5.1          gnome-base/librsvg
        x11-themes/lila-gnome-blue-0.4.2-r1  gnome-base/librsvg
        x11-themes/lila-gnome-green-0.4.2-r1  gnome-base/librsvg
        x11-themes/lila-gnome-red-0.4.2-r1   gnome-base/librsvg
        x11-themes/lila-gnome-white-0.5      gnome-base/librsvg
        xfce-base/libxfcegui4-cvs-20040612   >=gnome-base/librsvg-2
        xfce-base/xfce4-panel-cvs-20040612   gnome-base/librsvg
        xfce-base/xffm-cvs-20040612          >=gnome-base/librsvg-2
        xfce-extra/xfce4-icon-theme-cvs-20040823  gnome-base/librsvg

2. I'm fairly sure that the SVG icons themselves are not broken; I'm using the Lila set from some Gentoo users.

Can anyone help resolve this issue?  Developers?

Thanks in advance,
Andrew
