User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686 (x86_64); en-US; rv:1.9.1b2) Gecko/20081201 Firefox/3.1b2

SVG text positioned within the original visible area draws correctly, but when you scroll the view, text elements located beyond the original bounds of the window are never rendered.

This is new behavior in FF 3.1b2. In FF 3.0.x it works correctly.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Load the file "logview.svg" (I will upload attachment)
2. Observe initially visible state
3. Scroll down vertically
Actual Results:  
Only the colored boxes that are initially visible in the window have letters in them. when you scroll down the page, you see colored boxes but they have no letters.

Expected Results:  
Each colored box all the way down the page should have a letter in it. 

I will upload file ff31bug.svg
