Hi,

in nightly builds (for example 24th of December 2007 and previous) Inkscape almost always crashes when I want to open or import some file. I have filled a simillar bug report, but with segmentation fault in wxvault.dll (see https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/177618), but it turned out to be connected to EMBASSY software that ships with some DELL computers...

Anyway, after uninstalling the software, the program is still crashing, but this time with the segmentation fault in msvcrt!_HUGE(). On my laptop this happens when I want to open or import some file. I click on button, and the program crashes. I can almost always reproduce this crash on my laptop, but some people said that they can not reproduce it (see the bug report).

Any ideas what could be wrong here?

Thanks, and just wanted to say that 0.46 will be just amazing :) This is a brilliant software.
