isn't the last line equivalent to:

0       string/c       \<svg                  SVG image data

(the trailing blank is optional?)

Perhaps you ment:

0       string/cB       \<svg\                  SVG image data

A guess: with option ``B'', the trailing space can match any ``blank'',
not only space, but also tab, perhaps even newline?

If my guess were not right, we could go back to:
0       string/cB       \<!DOCTYPE\ svg         SVG image data
0       string/c        \<svg                   SVG image data

Have a nice day,
