I have the problem with the effects menu too. (debian unstable, cvs last week). I deleted .inkscape in my homedir and had a look in the dialog you mention but I don't see any possibility to enable the menu there (see attached screenshot). I also have problems with 3 extensions, but I don't know yet if I should configure --with-python --with-perl to get them working. I update from cvs atm an will recompile soon. The affacted extensions are:
Extension "Blur Edge" failed to load because a dependency was not met. Dependency:: type: plugin location: path string: bluredge
Extension "GIMP Gradients" failed to load because a dependency was not met. Dependency:: type: plugin location: path string: gimpgrad
Extension "Grid" failed to load because a dependency was not met. Dependency:: type: plugin location: path string: grid
Yeah, the effects menu checkbox in the preferences dialog is pretty new. I think it was added Friday or Saturday.
You do not need to configure with python or perl. But I don't know what you need to do to get those plugins working. I think I remember Ted saying he was going to disable plugins for a while while he rearchitectured things. I was hoping that he would fill us in when he gets back.
If you do get it to work please record your steps on the wiki: http://inkscape.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?GettingEffectsWorking
