Mind collecting a backtrace as well?

I have a partial trace, but it's not very useful; where can I find inkscape's debugging symbols?

Closing. Version 0.47~pre0-0ubuntu1 came through today, and it no longer crashes. Plus, this version finally fixes the toolbar-is-too-long-to-fit-in-the-1024x600-screen-so-I'll-just-randomly-flip-around-whenever-you-click bug that drove me up the wall. Two birds in one update. ;)

Marking Fixed.
