I cannot reproduce this: I do see "ABC" in a red square.

Is this related to the first or the second SVG in your report?

Here I see only a blue square no matter whether this SVG is from a
file or from a buffer string, and no matter what is the directory.
Once again, a full detailed recipe could help establish whether
there's a difference between our systems.

Can someone please try the above SVG on a Unix or GNU system and see
what is shown?

This could also be a problem with that particular version of librsvg,
which would make it not an Emacs problem.

What about the PNG library?  Is it possible you are using one that is
different from what came with librsvg-2.40.1-2-w32-bin.zip?  librsvg
uses libpng internally.
