Hi Johan,
Not only does it crash when starting from within gdb, but also when I start Inkscape directly, without trying to debug it. I guess I was not clear on that. If it were only a gdb issue then I probably wouldn't have bothered ;-). It would be great to know whether it's reproducible, or maybe you are able to get a backtrace. You're programming on Windows, right? I'll try the file on my linux-machine at home and see where it leads to.
The file will be sent in a separate mail to you personally, I'd rather not have it published on the mailing list as it's somewhat confidential.
Regards,
Diederik

Running inkscape in gdb and then opening a file has been freezing Inkscape since a long time ago, since January I think (I must admit I have not tried in over a month, maybe it got fixed accidentally). I do not know how to fix this, it seems some obscure bug. A "fix" is to load the file from the command line which did work last time I tried.
Can you send the SVG file to me so I can try?
Groet! Johan
