Same issue affects me.
With Inkscape 0.46 under Win XP32 I remember it worked.
Now I'm using Inkscape 0.47 under Win 7 64 bit and can't reopen the modified svgs before manually removing the special character.
One of the affected (not yet by Inkscape changed) svg's is at: http://gpsmid.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/gpsmid/GpsMid/resources/images/icon/main/i_back.svg
