-* Experimental SVG support
-
-  To compile with SVG, you will need pkg-config to be installed, as
-  the configure script invokes pkg-config to find out which compiler
-  switches to use for SVG.  See above for the URL where you can find
-  pkg-config for Windows.
-
-  SVG support is currently experimental, and not built by default.
-  Specify --with-rsvg and ensure you have all the dependencies in your
-  include path.  Unless you have built a minimalist librsvg yourself
-  (untested), librsvg depends on a significant chunk of GTK+ to build,
-  plus a few Gnome libraries, libxml2, libbz2 and zlib at runtime.  The
-  easiest way to obtain the dependencies required for building is to
-  download a pre-bundled GTK+ development environment for Windows.
-
-  To use librsvg at runtime, ensure that librsvg and its dependencies
-  are on your PATH.  If you didn't build librsvg yourself, you will
-  need to check with where you downloaded it from for the
-  dependencies, as there are different build options.  If it is a
-  short list, then it most likely only lists the immediate
-  dependencies of librsvg, but the dependencies themselves have
-  dependencies - so don't download individual libraries from GTK+,
-  download and install the whole thing.  If you think you've got all
-  the dependencies and SVG support is still not working, check your
-  PATH for other libraries that shadow the ones you downloaded.
-  Libraries of the same name from different sources may not be
-  compatible, this problem was encountered with libbzip2 from GnuWin32
-  with libcroco from gnome.org.
-
-  If you can see etc/images/splash.svg, then you have managed to get
-  SVG support working.  Congratulations for making it through DLL hell
-  to this point.  You'll probably find that some SVG images crash
-  Emacs.  Problems have been observed in some images that contain
-  text, they seem to be a problem in the Windows port of Pango, or
-  maybe a problem with the way Cairo or librsvg is using it that
-  doesn't show up on other platforms.
