Confirmed on Windows XP, Inkscape 0.47.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Open the attached SVG (semi-transparent rectangle).
2. Export it to png.
3. Import the png in another document.
4. Export the imported png to png again.

In the last export, all the transparency is replaced with grey.

@JazzyNico - can you confirm this being fixed in recent development builds?

Fix confirmed on Windows XP and Ubuntu 10.04, Inkscape revision 9441.
