Except that svg is not working on Windows. I have traced down through 
the Qt code to where it gives up on the svg and creates an empty pixmap.

It works on linux because a Qt plugin is called to create the icon. On 
Windows it gets down to looking for the plugin and it has not been 
loaded. It is there at \qt\4.4.3\plugins\iconengines\qsvgicond4.dll. I 
will look further tomorrow to see why it is not loaded.
