Comment:

 This is a Qt but (http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTBUG-5114). It
 works if you print to raster because QPainter then renders to image first
 and then embedds the image into the pdf.
 No idea why the patch in the ticket is not applied to the qt sources. I
 tested with a patched Qt and it worked properly.

 And note: it only works for symbology-ng 'svgFill' types. The hardcoded
 polygon fill hatches are printed as raster by QBrush, so won't scale
 nicely on printout.

 Closing the ticket because it is not a bug in QGIS (though I understand it
 is annoying for users).
