In recent SVN builds, i.e., the last week or so, the resize handle that was on the far right of the status bar has disappeared. The reason it was added to Inkscpae was that on OSX, every resizable window has a small handle in this position that is above any widgets in the window itself -- meaning the statusbar zoom controls could not be clicked on OSX. It was decided (previously on the mailing list) that we would put our own resize handle here, which shifted the zoom control slightly to the left.
I looked at recent commits, but couldn't find where this happened or the relevant code that needs changing. Could someone please add the resize handle back and document in the code the reason for it being there.
I think it was broken months and months ago. Just drop in a bug report and we'll be sure that it gets fixed. (it disappeared in the middle of going back and forth on whether or not to use a GTK splitter to allow for dynamic resizing of the color swatches panel).
