I am happy to get my hands dirty to solve this if someone can point my
in the right direction.

I see that it's rather big.  I suspect that the importer, while it gets
scaling right, doesn't get the units right.  The importer is
plug-ins/dxf/dxf-import.c, and should be easy to understand.  There's an
overview of the file format at
http://www.dcs.ed.ac.uk/home/mxr/gfx/3d/DXF12.spec.  I don't have time to
get into it now, if you could figure this out, it'd be great.
