crash while loading a file

[xapantu]

Inkscape crash when I try to open a file (attached), either from the command line, or from an inkscape menu.

Version 0.91

Here is the backtrace :

Hum, sorry, I was mistaken.

This wasn't a problem with a specific file, but in the way Inkscape handles the recent file list (to resolve implicit links as far as I see).

I had opened "Conférence_something.osp" in another application, so there was an utf-8 string in the recent file list, and it was not properly handled.

So, here is a patch, I don't have the time to download the development branch, I hope it can still be fixed in the trunk ;)
