Details:

using print() with -dsvg produces a non-scalable svg.

since the "s" in svg stands for "scalable" it rather seems to defeat the main
purpose of this format to produce non scalable output. 

looking at the first few lines shows :

<svg 
viewBox="0 0 576 432"
 xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg";
 xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink";



Looking at other svg files created with gnuplot I see the first line contains
height and width:

<svg  width="600" height="480" viewBox="0 0 600 480"
 xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg";
 xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink";>


Since having a non-scalable "scalable" graphic is probably not what is most
useful I assume this is an error.
