Cairo should be able to help there.

Yes. Use cairo_svg_surface_create, (which exists as of cairo >=
1.2.0).

That's going to be up to you to parse, and then call into cairo,
(cairo_move_to, cairo_line_to, cairo_stroke, etc.)

It should work fine, (and please let us know if it doesn't). Just grab
the latest tar file from here:

        http://cairographics.org/releases

Un-tar that ("tar xzf cairo-1.2.6.tar.gz" for example), the follow the
instructions that will appear in cairo-1.2.6/INSTALL.

And please let us know if anything is unclear so that we can improve
the clarity of the documentation.

And please have fun with cairo!
