Comment 12 for bug 527314

I don't think that Mathematica is the problem. I don't think that anything in 'Rosenbaum_Figure_6U.svg' was generated in Mathematica. It's an old file to which I later added Mathematica svg's, to obtain 'Rosenbaum_Figure_6U2.svg'.

In any case, I made the X11 preference change that ~suv suggested (thanks!), then copied the top part of the problematic figure to another file. Now I have the figure I wanted and no crashes. Thanks for the help.

I guess the original file, 'Rosenbaum_Figure_6U.svg', is corrupt. I have no idea what the source of the problem is, but I'm pretty sure it originated in Inkscape, perhaps an older version.
