Illustrator does something nasty with SVG files by making a bitmap
thumbnail of the image embedded in the SVG, thus producing a monstrous
file. This can be fixed by opening in Inkscape and pruning out this by
hand atm unfortunately.

Does anyone have a script to prune out this stuff and/or want to make
one? That would be a cool task...
