I have this problem too (fully up-to-date Lucid 10.04), although it doesn't matter whether the TIFF file has an absolute or a relative path in the SVG.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Create a TIFF: $ import test.tiff
2. Open Inkscape, drag the new test.tiff in.
3. Save as SVG.
4. Browse to the containing folder with Nautilus, or $ eog test-svg-file

The SVG can be modified to make the TIFF file path absolute, and the issue still occurs. Does not happen with, say, JPEG files.

I use a lot of TIFF files in SVG, and this bug has been around quite a while now (not sure when it started, as Nautilus used to crash because of gradients in SVG files, so the cause is now different but the effect is the same!)
