Which Dia version do you use on Windows (and from where did you download 
it? - also there's the Portable version and the installer version). 
Information regarding the operating system might also help to backcheck 
on your problem.

Using Dia 0.97.2 from dia-installer.de, SVG shapes should work just fine 
as you can see if you use the
Gradient shapes:

If shapes that you've created are causing problems, it might be a good 
idea to present a sample file. This might make it much
easier to track down the problem - if it's related to the shape and not 
the installation.
