What I've done is that I've modified my build.xml to output a console
application instead of a GUI application. This hardly ever leads to
conflicts (as these switches are usually left alone). I just have to
make sure I don't commit my version of build.xml, but this is not a big
problem.

Of course this is only interesting for developers, and I do think it
makes sense to make the console messages more accessible in Inkscape,
but perhaps just adding inkscapec.exe to Inkscape's directory would not
be accessible enough. Perhaps a separate shortcut that would start
inkscapec?
