Thanks for letting me know that the file renders well for all of you. I discovered through some testing that, at fault is Matlab's convention for naming fonts (since it runs its own font system).
In the SVG file, it was only using "Times", which is not a registered font on my system. If I changed the font to "Times New Roman" for all instances of any text, the file renders fine.
Consider it solved! :-)
I have a similar workflow but found that many scientific software provide poor SVG (except for gnumeric maybe). But they often provide very good PDFs and the devel version of Inkscape also has very good pdf support. So if you can upgrade to a new inkscape version this is a very good workflow. It has the additional advantage that you can send your pdf files to anyone while this is (unfortunately) not true for SVG.
