Thank you for checking up on the status of this bug. (I have been exporting to png files since then.) I had forgotten about this problem until the email alert.
Indeed, this problem has been fixed in the current version of inkscape (0.48.3.1 r9886) on ubuntu (12.10). I'm not sure if the bug report was helpful. I am glad the issue is fixed. (I'll revert back to pdfs again.) Thanks!
