I can see in the CVS logs that SVG support has been dropped:

PatchSet 293

Author: bastian
Branch: HEAD
Tag: (none)
Log:
No support for SVG icons

        scripts/desc/xdg-icon-resource.xml:1.9->1.10
        scripts/html/xdg-icon-resource.html:1.7->1.8
        scripts/man/xdg-icon-resource.1:1.9->1.10

        tests/xdg-utils-usecases/t.13-desktop_file_svg_icon:1.1->1.2(DEAD)

Why was this done? We are currently installing our SVG icon directly into 
/usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps (and PNG icons into 
/usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps etc), but would like to switch to 
xdg-utils. Does this mean that we cannot install a scalable icon?
