Till,

Did you really mean SVG? SVG is a vector format which is rendered by the 
browser, are you using the same browser to access both servers?

I'd suggest you start by comparing the SVG output from both to try to 
figure the difference (it's XML-ish) between the output from your two 
servers, and then we can go from there.
