Just for the record (I am aware that the report was closed as 'Fix Released')

Changes in r10078:
<https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~inkscape.dev/inkscape/trunk/revision/10078>

Indeed Inkscape 0.48.2 (tarball) and 0.48.x (branch) fails to build with GCC 4.6.2 on OS X 10.7.2 Lion
(current trunk r10927 builds ok with GCC 4.6.2 (fix from bug #808338), and all versions build without failure with using Apple's GCC 4.2.1 or llvm-gcc.-4.2):

  CXXLD inkscape
g++-mp-4.6: error: unrecognized option '--export-dynamic'
make[2]: *** [inkscape] Error 1
make[2]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make: *** [all] Error 2

This would matter if we want to be able to support building Mac OS X packages of 0.48.x with OpenMP support (not possible when using Apple's old GCC version).
