Holding 'ctrl' when drawing a line crashes Inkscape when a grid is enabled.

[Edd Barrett]

1) In "File->Document Properties" go the the "Grid" tab.
2) Add a grid. Leave the grid parameters at the default.
3) Go back to the canvas and select the line tool.
4) Left click and drag the line out whlst holding the control key.
5) If step 4 didn't cause a crash, repeat, until it does.

This is Inkscape-0.91 on OpenBSD.

could you attach the svg file you are using?

Thanks for taking the time to file a report!

Not reproduced on Xubuntu 16.04, Inkscape 0.91 and trunk rev. 14942.
How many loops in steps 4 and 5 does it take to reproduce the crash? I've tried about 10-20 times without any issue.
