Ugh. I've been digging a little deeper into the problems with
CorelDRAW11-exported files. The "wrong namespace"
issue can be solved by simply adding a
xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"
reference to the svg header tag.

Then, the second problem is the directory separator used in
Windows-Corel-exported files: the backslash. At least on a
UNIX/Linux filesystem like ext3, inkscape does not load this.
I've had a short look at the xlink standard. However, I was
slightly unsure how to find a reference to the directory
separator specification. So, I cannot state whether not
interpreting backslash as a dir separator is a bug in
inkscape or in the exported SVG.

(fixing this manually results in good-looking SVG's in
inkscape here! Yay!)
