I have managed to fix the SVG tests, the only roadblock to successful make check compilation now is the XML test. There's a circular dependency: preferences.o -> libspxml.a -> libspsvg.a -> preferences.o. I tried linking with $(all_libs) but it fails. I wonder why does this work with the SVG test and when compiling the main executable.

I'd just like to mention that you (and Jon) totally rock! Keep up the good work.

Unfortunately I don't know why this circular dependency is suddenly a problem (or perhaps it didn't exist before?), it worked over the summer... (And I'm not exactly an expert when it comes to building on Linux.)
