yyeeeahhhh, got it !
i'm using FF1.5 since beta 1, and it's good to see (finally!) SVG support.

i also tested with sarge mozilla version, and i see one block of red text - normal - but i can view the image, is it normal ?
scrolling on your page is a little bit slow, is it the result of SVG rendering?

For the benefit of history, Debians Mozilla Browser maintainers switched on SVG support very early in its life. So yes SVG support was already installed in a browser on my system, but they never blow their own trumpet enough.
Marketing their browser like OS2, thank goodness Google are helping market Firefox.

That looks pretty good.
Right now I'm in the middle of trying to build a Debian package for Sarge, which I reckon will be done overnight - or fail miserably five minutes after I turn the lights out!
