NPE: "href" is null in Use

[jschneider]

I am not sure what exactly is the cause for this problem.
But debugging shows that the "href" in the class "Use" is null.

Searching in the SVG (which I may not share) shows this:

<use
   href="#Flags"
   id="MyId"
   x="0"
   y="0"
   width="100%"
   height="100%"
   transform="translate(-284.35164,225.73852)" />

This is a file created by inkscape which seems to reference that part:

<defs
    id="defs1908">
<symbol
       id="Flags"><g [...]

Would you be able to attach an svg file that demonstrates the problem?
