Comment 9 for bug 229412

This appears to be library related issue as Inkscape 0.46 on Ubuntu Intrepid does not exhibit the problem. Unfortunately I do not have a Hardy install available for further testing. However, I am attaching a patch submitted to us by Adrian Knoth. If someone could build the Inkscape 0.46 tarball, apply the patch, and test on Hardy with the above example files it would be greatly appreciated.
