Freeze on window resize

[Philipp Blanke]

System: Ubuntu 12.10 with Unity, NVidia proprietary graphics driver
Inkscape: inkscape 0.48.3.1-1ubuntu6.1 and inkscape-trunk 0.48+devel+12188+35~quantal1

Steps: Launch Inkscape. Resize Window (simple resize, fullscreen view or maximize). Inkscape freezes with CPU on 100%.

I used strace and found Inkscape hanging in the following loop:
>strace inkscape
...
poll([{fd=3, events=POLLIN|POLLOUT}], 1, -1) = 1 ([{fd=3, revents=POLLIN|POLLOUT}])
recvfrom(3, "\34\0\263?\v\0 \3(\0\0\0\2653\331\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0"..., 4096, 0, NULL, NULL) = 2944
writev(3, [{"\213\7\2\0^\22 \0036\21\2\0]\22 \0035\30\4\0_\22 \3\v\0 \3\r\0|\1"..., 16380}, {NULL, 0}, {"", 0}], 3) = 16380
recvfrom(3, 0x27cc6c4, 4096, 0, 0, 0) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable)
brk(0x6ba5000) = 0x6ba5000
brk(0x6bc6000) = 0x6bc6000
brk(0x6be7000) = 0x6be7000
brk(0x6c08000) = 0x6c08000
...

> sudo lsof -p 3
COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME
ksoftirqd 3 root cwd DIR 8,1 4096 2 /
ksoftirqd 3 root rtd DIR 8,1 4096 2 /
ksoftirqd 3 root txt unknown /proc/3/exe

If I launch Inkscape as root, everything works.
> sudo inkscape

Does this still happen with current stable Inkscape 0.91?
