After changing the preferences inkscape is not crashing any more. I added the paths as an attachment. There seem to be no paths with non-unicode characters. (I doubt there are any paths like that on my system, as I avoid to use any characters which are not in the basic ASCII set).
Thank you ~suv for looking into this problem. Finally I'm able to use Inkscape again.
