librsvg gives "width too large" for Inkscape SVG

Hello all,
I was trying to create an image for Wikipedia (which renders SVGs with librsvg), but it refused to render the image. I downloaded librsvg; when I tried to render my image with its test program, I got:
(process:13861): librsvg-WARNING **: rsvg_start_svg: width too large (process:13861): librsvg-WARNING **: Error loading SVG file.
The SVG itself is available at [1], with other versions available at [2]. It was created with Inkscape 0.44.1 on Mac OS X. I have tried saving as both "Inkscape SVG" and "Plain SVG"; I have also copied all of the objects into a "fresh" SVG file, but to no effect.
Can anyone tell me what's wrong with my image, and how I can fix it? Thanks a ton!

It couldn't be the fact that the document size is slightly smaller than the overall image? In Inkscape I used the document properties to set the document to the same as the image. It went from 600x600 to 601.25x601.25...
Haven't got libsrvg so I can't tell if this the problem but it was just a thought from a fan of Inkscape.

Hi Alan,
Thanks for the reply, but this isn't the problem. I tried setting the document size to the same as the image, as you did, but librsvg gave the same error. (I had "drawn outside the lines" before, with different images, and those rendered fine.)
Thanks anyway,
