Needless to say that I can't reproduce the crash on my local system (10.7.5), though it's not a completely unfamiliar type of crash (early packages of osxmenu produced similar crashes on Mavericks (but not on the local system either)).

Could you please try this (in order to provide a few more details until I have prepared a debug build which includes debug symbols):
1) download the package 'Inkscape-0.91pre3-r13671-2-x11-10.7-x86_64.dmg' from this dropbox folder:
   https://www.dropbox.com/sh/magg5vw5j3y1y3u/AAD-l8JqwCyUNuoWYNRKufyHa?dl=0
2) install into any folder (e.g. ~/Applications)
3) launch the new build with these steps:
- in the Finder, browse to the application
- use 'Show Package Contents' from the context menu of the selected app
- browse to 'Contents > MacOS' and double-click 'Inkscape'
  (this will open a non-interactive terminal window which will display console message, and allows to easily copy&paste them)
- once Inkscape's main window has opened, import a bitmap image (via 'File > Import')
  (likely the same type of crash will occur)
- copy&paste any messages appearing in that terminal window, save them as a 'Plain Text' file and attach it to this report.

The package 'Inkscape-0.91pre3-r13671-2-x11-10.7-x86_64.dmg' doesn't differ a lot from the "official" 0.91pre3 package - it has a couple of debug messages added to the file which attempts to detect the image resolution of the imported bitmap image.
