ah, you're right, the SVG file is in fact produced and place in the tmp_dir

I see the problem -- you can't reference a svg image in an img src= manner --
it has to be in the form of:

  <embed src="circle.svg" width="50" height="50" type="image/svg+xml" />

and AFAICT CGI.pm doesn't support that (yet?) -- this goes back to an email
conversation you (Christophe) and I had a few months ago...sorry!
