Inkscape crashes with assertion failure on XAML import.

[Łukasz Krotowski]

When trying to import XAML file from [1] both 0.47 or r22598 crash with:
inkscape: /usr/include/boost/optional/optional.hpp:588: typename boost::optional_detail::optional_base<T>::pointer_type boost::optional<T>::operator->() [with T = Geom::D2<Geom::Interval>]: Assertion `this->is_initialized()' failed.

Inkscape was built with boost 1.40.0 on x86_64 Linux.

Could you attach the file that you are trying to import?

Sorry, forgot to add link for [1]. Well:

Reproduced with Inkscape 0.47 on OS X 10.5.8

console message:
Assertion failed: (this->is_initialized()), function operator->, file /opt/local-macports-with-a-really-very-quite-long-directory-name/include/boost/optional/optional.hpp, line 588.

reproduced with Inkscape r8888 on OS X 10.5.8, boost 1.39.0

console message:
Assertion failed: (this->is_initialized()), function operator->, file /Volumes/blue/mp/include/boost/optional/optional.hpp, line 588.

The crash log from my local build however shows a different trace of thread 0 than the crash log of the official 0.47 build from sf.net.

attaching the xaml file used to reproduce the crash (downloaded from link in comment #2)

[su_v (suv-lp)]

The XML file '496756-PlanetCute.xaml' opens without error in Inkscape 0.46 on OS X 10.5.8 and can be saved as SVG.
The SVG file '496756-PlanetCute.svg' opens without error in Inkscape 0.46 but again crashes with the same error as the original XAML file when opened in Inkscape 0.47.
