When matplotlib outputs an SVG, each unique character is assigned a
numeric id (these are just assigned in order), and inserted as a def,
and then used (referenced) wherever they are used.

involved -- I'm not sure who to credit, but he or she deserves most of it.
I did add the feature that's causing grief here -- the embedding of

For the sake of the list, I'm linking the response to my question on the
Inkscape mailing list -- this is certainly an Inkscape bug, that their
copy-and-paste functionality does not handle use/defs correctly.
However, as the workaround in mpl was easy enough, we don't have to wait
for Inkscape
