If using gdb on Windows, I find that it will complain about xsldebugstatus just after you run, and you can type 'continue (enter)' and it will then run OK. You also can't just open a file normally, because of something with gdb, but you have to use import. Everything else works pretty normally.
If anyone is able to patch, build and test, Adib has posted a patch in bug 187290 - https:/ /bugs.launchpad .net/inkscape/ +bug/187290/ comments/ 34 - I will test that later today.
I have updated the wiki with my latest methods of building and testing on Windows - http:// wiki.inkscape. org/wiki/ index.php/ Win32Port
