To answer my self if someone else happens to be interested.

Svg support in the microb-engine can be enabled by building packages with
command:
DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS="parallel svgport" dpkg-buildoptions -rfakeroot -uc -us

Then install related packages to the device. If svg content is not rendered
like in the problem described below, you need to remove
~/.mozilla/microb/compreg.dat and restart browser. Then it should work.

If you want to test reference UI, install microb-refui package and you can
start refui tests:
cd /usr/lib/microb-engine/
export GRE_HOME=.
./run-mozilla.sh TestGtkEmbed <ULR>

I hope someone finds this usefull.
