 I see (in DebugView) the annoying set of messages (below) in the following
 circumstances:

 - every time I add an svg (any svg) to a composer layout.

 - when I open a saved project the messages are repeated for each layout
 that contains an svg (or perhaps for each svg on each layout - I don't
 know, as I always have just one svg per layout, a north arrow).

 The attached patch fixes the svgs included in qgis, so I no longer get the
 messages.  But it seems very strange to me that these messages were output
 when opening a project.  Why would qgis  need to read these svgs, when
 they are not used in the project?  And why would it need to read them
 repeatedly, for every composer layout with an svg?
