SVG 1.2 is not supported when using instream-foreign-object BUT it is supported when using fo:external-graphic. This is due to the fact that org.apache.fop.image.analyser.SVGReader uses org.apache.batik.dom.svg.SAXSVGDocumentFactory to obtain the SVG document - that class supports SVG 1.2. But the classes that handle the instream-foreign- object SVG support are mapped directly to the SVG 1.1 implementation.
This is implemented in FOP Trunk now. http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?rev=719616&view=rev http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?rev=719646&view=rev
