I've posted to my ppa packages (for Ubuntu 12.04) of newer pixman and cairo with the downscaling fix, and a inkscape-trunk package built against these.
Even though they were built for precise, I installed them on raring.
*Nod* Yeah it's basically the same package needed for all ubuntu releases.
As a status update, I have the two libs packaged for 12.04 through 13.04, and am waiting for them to get built:

Seems the buildd's are overloaded. :-) But once those are baked I can binary copy them into Inkscape's PPA and update the control file so inkscape starts using them.
Have I missed anything? If no one raises an objection, I will upload the pixman and cairo packages to the Inkscape trunk and stable PPAs for Ubuntu 12.04, 12.10, 13.04, and 13.10, and commit the debian/control dependency version change to trunk. I believe that should appropriately solve this bug for all Ubuntu users.
No objection here. I did the same test as you with older libs and newer libs, it all checked out good here.
Thanks for the testing. I'll go ahead and proceed once the packages are built, hopefully some time this weekend.
