This is related to closing paths in SVG.
For straight line paths, one can specify 3 lines and say it is closed to create a quadrilateral. For curved paths, this is not possible, one has to explicitly mention the closing line segment. Then still, the path is marked as closed, which means that would be a zero length closing line segment. Inkscape tries to "see" this zero-length segment. I think sometimes it fails due to floating point rounding errors.
So now I am trying to fix it by being a bit more relaxed about floating point rounding errors.

Unfortunately, I cannot check whether this is fixed now or not. please try svn rev. 19841
