#26591: SVG logo doesn't display in WebKit/Blink browsers

 First noticed in 3.8 update, still happening in trunk. Tested using
 DesktopServer 3.6.1 (Apache/2.4.4 (Unix) PHP/5.4.19 OpenSSL/1.0.1e
 mod_perl/2.0.8-dev Perl/v5.16.3).

 When viewing the `wp-admin/about.php` page, the WP logo is missing in
 Chrome, Safari, and Opera on Mac. Since those browsers supports SVG, the
 CSS falls through the PNG version and tries to display the SVG but it
 isn't recognized (lined out in the inspector). This doesn't happen in
 Firefox.

 I'm running Apache, and adding the SVG support to .htaccess in the root
 directory works for me, but I don't think it's a solid solution for fixing
 across the board. Since it works in Firefox without adding these lines,
 I'm wondering if there's a better solution for general use.

 http://www.w3.org/services/svg-server/ gives solutions to add support to
 servers, but I'd like to find something that works on first install if the
 browser supports it.
