There is a recent packaging regression on Mac OS X as well:
The official Mac OS X package for Inkscape 0.48.2 misses the entry for SVG in 'etc/gtk-2.0/gdk-pixbuf.loaders' (included in the application bundle) and thus fails to load SVG files linked via <image> tag. The entry was present in earlier releases (e.g. 0.48.1).
The required library is present in the app bundle, and loading an SVG linked via <image> tag works fine after adding back the SVG entry into the gdk_pixbuf loaders configuration.
Note: The file 'gdk-pixbuf.loaders' is auto-generated when installing the dependencies for Inkscape:
> # Created by gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders from gdk-pixbuf-2.22.1
and I don't know why the entry for SVG is absent in the 0.48.2 package (it's present in all of my local installs).
