The bug is critical or at least high importance to all branches of Inkscape, because it makes PDFs exported from Inkscape unusable in non-Poppler PDF readers - regardless of what is used for on-screen rendering. Exporting PDFs is what you do when you want a large poster printed out, and because of this bug you will have a nasty surprise when it turns out the PDF won't open at the print shop. It almost made me miss deadlines twice before I tracked it down.
The bug is not related to the cairo branch at all. It's basically "Invalid" for Inkscape since it's not our bug, but it's still very severe. I don't know how to otherwise bring this issue to the attention of Ubuntu packagers.
