Many people reported a crach on exit on Windows. Now there's a bug report with partial backtrace:

suggesting it's something to do with event contexts. If someone on Windows can debug this further it would be very nice.
I saw that problem, too. I have seen this before, so I had an idea of what to do about it.
Win32 builders merely need to do a make -f Makefile.mingw clean before they do a make -f Makefile.mingw dist to make a distro directory. Makedep does a fairly good job at tracking dependencies, but it is not perfect. So occasionally people need to start with fresh .o's.
By the way, we need to add a target so that builders can choose stripped binaries or unstripped. Gdb.exe is useless without '-g'. I will add the target tomorrow.
I just made a stripped build with no gdb here: http://inkscape.org/win32/Inkscape0511212157.zip It does not have the bug.
