Hi

I too experienced a similar problem recently.

The changes in 5a9dba9929d9 seem to fix the original test case of
replaying to an SVG surface, but only for the first time: I noticed that
replaying a second time still fails, producing an empty SVG.

BTW, these seems to be regressions as 1.14.10 works fine in both cases.

I also noticed that the generated files look a little different when
using the current master: groups and links are used for the replayed
surfaces, while with 1.14.10 the replayed elements are drawn ungrouped,
I don't know if the regression is related to this change.

I can bisect if necessary.

See the following test program, it works as (I think) it should with
1.14.10, but not with the current master (d5b634da6159):
