I found out that the rendering problems come from a bug in evince /
poppler. The files render properly in acroread so I've decided to keep
them as SVG. I would like the highest quality I can get for printing.
The updated files are linked on the gnome marketing wiki but I'll list
them here too.

PDFs:

Inkscape SVGs:

The PDF with fold marks should be used if you're folding the brochure
by hand. The PDF without the fold marks should be used if you're using
a printer or folding machine to automatically fold the brochure. The
SVG files have the fold marks included but the marks should be removed
when generating PDFs for use with automatic folding machines.

Cheers, Ben
