Testing with archived trunk builds (on OS X 10.7.5):
- not reproduced with lp:inkscape rev <= 13001,
- reproduced with lp:inkscape >= 13002;
the changes in r13002 seem to have contributed to the reported issue:

Revision 13002:
* Added new base class to handle viewBox and preserveAspectRatio.
* Updated sp-root, sp-symbol, sp-image, sp-pattern, marker to use new class.
* Fixed some viewport issues when % used.

Unclear to me at this point why the tested stable Linux build (package from inkscape PPA: 0.91.0+52~ubuntu14.04.1) produces a different result (?).

A more recent (local) trunk build on Ubuntu 14.04 (Inkscape 0.92+devel 15110 (Sep 4 2016)) however does reproduce the same problem as described in comment #1 - the content does not render visibly when opening the file in the GUI, nor when importing the file into a new (empty) document.
