The width is calulcated from this formula: (intrinsic ratio) * (used height) (intrinsic ratio) in your case is 1 (1:1, comes from viewBox) [2]. (used height) is 3.5em. So the width is computed to 3.5em. Mozilla seems to have bugs on this [3,4,5]. I have not checked with webkit. If you do find bugs regarding to this in opera, please file them.
