I updated to 2.0.6 (also had to rebuild glibmm and gtkmm) and tried again, now it doesn't hang anymore, it just crashes on startup :P This is what gdb says:

It looks like it's using a gcc 3.3 libstdc++... I'm using gcc 3.4.2 all the way. But I'm not sure what this means. Anyway maybe this problem is unrelated to the libsigc++ one?
No, this is definitely libstdc++ related - you can see it listed in each of the call lines above. None of the listed calls refer to Inkscape functions (which typically are prepended with sp_).
So keep checking your libraries and if things are compiled correctly. For instance, do you need to recompile libsigc or other libs that you installed since your gcc upgrade?
