1) No ‘memory’ of custom ‘SVG path’:
A look into the .qml file shows that +only+ the relative path from the saved ‘SVG paths’ to the custom SVG fill file is saved. It seems that if a custom ‘SVG paths’ is defined then QGIS is unable to use it and only uses relative paths from the default SVG folder.
2) ‘Saved styles’ should save (copy) the style to a QGIS-system folder (either under user/.qgis2, or in the QGIS application folder).
Again, it seems to be a relative path problem.
I would strongly suggest that all symbols saved to the library are physically copied to a QGIS-system folder: either under user/.qgis2, or in the QGIS application folder. The symbols in the library should be available at anytime, even if the original symbol was on a removable drive/internet that is not available anymore. to Problems with SVG paths (custom SVG paths incompatible with relative path) - QGIS f779592
