Not reproduced with Inkscape 0.48.4 and Inkscape 0.48+devel <= 12399 on OS X 10.7.5 Reproduced with Inkscape 0.48+devel >= r12400
Likely a regression introduced with recent refactoring of the selection handles in <http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~inkscape.dev/inkscape/trunk/revision/12400>
Note: on OS X, it works after having zoomed in close enough: apparently the distance between the selection handles in _screen_ pixels matters in recent trunk builds.
