There is no google hit for "Xlib: extension "RANDR" missing on display ":0.0". Mac OS X" - so sorry - I have to bother you again…
That warning doesn't prevent Inkscape from launching. It just says that the X server doesn't have the extension. You don't need it.
On Leopard, with a recent X11/Xquartz 2.40 installed I see this too:
Xlib: extension "RANDR" missing on display "/tmp/launch-3AIizG/:0".
If Inkscape fails to launch, it must be for another reason.

(I could provide links to mails in the X11-users or xquartz-dev mailing lists about 'RANDR' if needed, atm I haven't searched for them ;-)
Jeremy Huddleston (developer of current X11/Xquartz versions for Apple) in macports-users:
It definitely is just a warning. It occurs whenever an app tries to query the RANDR extension. It notices that the extension is missing and disables whatever optional support it would've had for that extension. gtk2 based applications will do this every time they start... probably any app that uses a toolkit higher level than libXt, libXaw, or motif will omit such a message.
