Confirmed on Batik 1.7 and Batik 1.8 pre (revision 755843). Updating the Batik version on the report to reflect this.

I didn't try to dig much on what's wrong but, for now, made a few tests in other implementations. This can be useful if anyone wants to understand what should happen and/or have a notion on interoperability status regarding this specific feature. ;-)

Works:
 * Opera 9.64;
 * Opera 10.00 alpha;
 * Firefox 3.6 alpha [1] (with preference "svg.smil.enabled" set to "true");
 * IE8 + ASV6 preview;
 * IE8 + ASV3.03.

Doesn't work:
 * Safari 4 preview;
 * Google Chrome 2.0.170.0;
 * Firefox 3.0.7;

The implementations where it doesn't work are expected no SMIL support is available. Included anyway for informative purposes.

Bug #46914 (https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=46914) is very simmilar to this. Maybe the reason is the same.

Not similar, it's the same! This is bug 46914. ;-)

Did you meant to establish a relation with bug 46919? I've added a comment there in order to create the relationship, as this bug was reported first. :-)
Comment 5 Cameron McCormack 2009-03-26 16:08:22 UTC
Both this and bug 46919 have the same underlying cause, and that's that modifications to referenced resources do not cause an update to the referencing object.
