It is a long time since I tried xv. I do not know whether xv can handly
svg. If not, then, the OP's need for an xv replacement is satisfied by
qiv.

display of imagemagick is good. But when you want to see something fast
and scroll thru' a directory full of images, then qiv is the choice.
display is slow.
