Depending on fontconfig setting of a build system, it chooses
one of available sans-serif font families for generic font in
SVG files while SVG --> PDF conversion by Inkscape.
utilities/fixsvgfonts{-urwps}.sh scripts explicitly converted it
into "Nimbus Sans", which is a clone of Helvetica.
"DejaVu Sans", which originated from "Bitstream Vera", is slightly
wider than Helvetica and it is the fallback of Paul's setting.
Update fixsvgfonts{-urwps}.sh so that the explicit conversion meets
Paul's expectation.

Hi Paul,
This change assumes "fc-match sans-serif" returns "DejaVu Sans"
under your setting. The slight width mismatch causes texts you
centered inside boxes to be left shifted slightly.
If you don't see "DejaVu Sans" from the command above, what does
it say?
Thanks, Akira
