Found out what's going on:
In trunk, two inactive lines were removed: lines 446 and 447 of selection.cpp (see http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~inkscape.dev/inkscape/trunk/revision/11937)
In 0.48.4 however, these lines (434 and 435 in selection.cpp) were still active and needed, but accidentally removed when applying the backport from trunk (see http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~inkscape.dev/inkscape/RELEASE_0_48_BRANCH/revision/9934).
So yes, this is indeed a regression! I will add this to the release notes.
~suv, do you have a checkout of the 0.48.x branch at hand to reinstate these two lines?
