Okay, I solved this. I was actually being kind of dense on this one... Batik actually does throw exceptions even when everything is okay. The JVM keeps a file (fontconfig?) that maps abstract font names to *potentially* available physical font names, and also the file system path where they *might* be found.
When Batik searches through the entries in the file, it there's an exception each time it's dealing with a font which doesn't exist on the filesystem at the expected path. But this is not a fatal error. Anyway, when I ran my Batik-using code in Ecplipse, the debugger did a breakpoint every time an exception was thrown, even these innoccuous exceotions. It never dawned on my that it might be okay for this to happen. I wasn't seeing this when I ran my program manually from the command line, because I wasn't trapping the throwing of exceptions.
