> The app built alongside the instructions in the blueprint

Before creating the application bundle, did you really rebuilt MacPorts completely with the LDFLAGS 'headerpad_max_install_names' (or alternatively make a custom install of MacPorts with a long-long directory path as required for the current packaging scripts) - both methods to allow to rewrite the install paths of the linked/shared dylibs inside the application bundle? Or did you rely on setting 'DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH' in the launcher script?

More details and paths of the missing binaries/libs would be of help:
1) Launch your current Inkscape-quartz.app after reinstalling Xcode 3.1.3
2) open 'Applications > Utilities > Activity Monitor', select the process 'inkscape-bin'
3) 'Cmd+I' (Get Info) on the process and switch to 'Open Files and Ports'
4) copy and paste the list of files into a new TextEdit document, save as Plain Text file and attach it here.
