There remain incompatibilities between the SVG and ODF specifications.
Outline of the history of these problems here:

http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/WG/wiki/Proposals/SVG_in_ODF

I have tried to collect SVG-related OASIS (ODF) issues in a few posts (#22
and #24) in this forum thread:

http://en.libreofficeforum.org/node/293

It is also worth noting that SVGs created in Inkscape need to be saved using
the non-default "Plain SVG" file format for accurate compatibility testing
as Inkscape extended the SVG format.
