Thanks! Which brings up another unrelated question, how do I upload the file to the forum as you did here (for future reference)? I went looking for a way to do that but didn't find it.
Back on the original issue, yes I'm only modifying the BB view file (without success). Did you create this part with inkscape? From the file in
/cygdrive/f/Fritzing/My Documents/Fritzing/parts/svg/user/breadboard
on my system when I load this (which indeed works correctly for me as, does the original file from steelgoose), would you please confirm that this was created with incscape as I understood it to be?
I ask because the start of your working file looks like this:
vi prefix0000_7d78fc8d488fdfd6d0657240f1b67daf_2_breadboard.svg
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' standalone='no'?>
<- Generator: Adobe Illustrator 14.0.0, SVG Export Plug-In . SVG Version: 6.00 Build 43363) -->
<- svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" viewBox="0 0 23.476662 7.3039667" id="Layer_1" width="0.32606468in" gorn="0" version="1.1" x="0px" y="0px" height="0.10144398in">
(note: I had to make some minor changes in the above via edit to get it to display in here, apparently the forum interprets the xml sometimes!).
Which matches the unmodified file, where as mine modified by inkscape looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>

which (assuming you are as I think using inkscape) probably explains my problem. I suspect the devil is in these details from
http://fritzing.org/learning/tutorials/creating-custom-parts/providing-part-graphics/
1) Delete all graphical artefacts like masks, meshes and styles.
As far as I can see, I don't think I have anything like that enabled but I could well be wrong. Assuming
you are using inkscape could you tell me what you disabled in the stock inkscape as that may be my problem?
