AFAICT the "second bug" of the “miserable failures” (what a miserable summary line ;-) ) is a regression introduced recently in trunk:
- not reproduced with Inkscape 0.48.5, 0.91
- not reproduced with 0.92pre1 (prerelease tarball)
- not reproduced with archived trunk builds rev <= 14965
- reproduced with archived trunk builds rev >= 14979

The regression does not reproduce locally after rebuilding current trunk (r15003) with the changes of rev 14975 reverted.
All tests have only been done (in a new doc, with new prefs) as described in the bug description: a single path, wrapped in a group, the group moved, 'Envelope Deformation' path effect applied, node editor invoked for one of the bend paths via button in the Path Effects dialog.

@Jabiertxof - any chance you could revisit the changes of rev 14975 and investigate whether this regression could be avoided?
