Hello,
A few days ago I wrote (well, in fact I didn't had to write a lot) the
needed files to add Batik support for SVG format generation. I posted
everything as a comment on Jira :
http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-264
Will you integrate this in a more "official" way to geoserver's source tree?
It still lacks for an abort() function so if anybody knows Batik's
voodoo secrets, don't hesitate to implement it.
my 2 cents
