I do not have an offending preferences file, nor do I know if anyone has one readily available. Jon has talked to users who have had issues, so I filed it on his behalf while he was doing other bug fixing. I will be honest, the more eyes and minds we have on this, the better (I'd really like to cut a final release in a couple weeks)
ATM I can't remember a bug report that pointed to such a conflict - the one about numeric precision is limited to users that tested prerelease versions (AFAIK this pref was added after 0.46) - see previous thread "Inkscape SVN crashes on startup" from Sat, 3 Oct 2009.
I have a minor issue that 0.46 again and again deletes my 'Open Recent' file list of 0.47pre, but that's hardly a blocker... just annoying ;-)
console messages from 0.46:
(inkscape-bin:16834): Gtk-WARNING **: Attempting to read the recently used resources file at `/Users/suv/.recently-used.xbel', but the parser failed: Unexpected attribute 'modified' for element 'application'. (inkscape-bin:16834): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_bookmark_file_get_size: assertion `bookmark != NULL' failed (inkscape-bin:16834): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_file_system_unix_get_info: assertion `g_path_is_absolute (filename)' failed

p.s. (just grep'ed my 0.46 preferences.xml for 'precision' - 'numericprecision="8"' already exists in 0.46, but I found no GUI for it. Still, if a user manually had lowered that value to 1 or 2 and the pref file gets fully 'migrated' - current versions crash at startup. The underlying issue of bug #399604 is not fixed in SVN, but now the user no longer can enter a value lower than 3 in the GUI)
