Public bug reported:

When converting the example svg file into pdf on i386 there is a bug
which causes the resulting MediaBox element to have an incredibly large
height (looks like this might be an integer overflow). The expected
height is around 423 which the 64bit test run is correctly producing.

Testcase: attached script

Results from i386 chroots:

Precise:	overflow
Trusty:	overflow
Utopic:	height ok (but text misplaced)
Vivid:	height ok (but text misplaced)
Wily:	overflow

For Utopic and Vivid this seems "only" to result in visually unusable
results (because text in some boxes is rendered all on one line) but for
the other releases this would break the build of another package which
tried to import the resulting pdf images into its auto-generated
documentation.
