Bug Description
Hi! This is my first post here (I think!) so bear with any gaffes I might make. Hi ~suv!
The problem is simple to describe. Open Inkscape. Choose either preferences (editmenu) or document properties (filemenu). Inkscape immediately puts up the box 'will close now'. Shortly followed by the sorry for the inconvenience box.
The last build by Uwe Scholer for windows that this did not happen on was inkscape_
The last build that I tried it on and crashed was inkscape_
To avoid any possible interference from preferences or default files, I just removed my Inkscape folder from my application data folder entirely. Inkscape did create a new folder before crashing. This was to eliminate the possibility that I had a profile attached to my default that was a problem, as someone suggested. Although I did not remove all color profiles from my system.
I have attached the output from dbg as a text file. If I was meant to insert the text here I'm sorry and perhaps someone could point that out for next time. It's a rather small file - I deleted my tedious and repetitive help requests and lists of commands.
Just to give you a preview of what's in it I have excerpted a few lines here that i thought might be important but the entire output is in the file.
(gdb) bt

Thanks for your help. Sorry for breaking your program!

(*) based on the build date of the last development snapshot (r12088) not exposing this issue (I have no way to verify when UweSch updated the devlibs, but I'd be inclined to assume it was for the one after that (r12093), because libcdr support for Windows was added in r12091)
