I think the problem referred to by JazzyNico is the following bug:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/956225 It may be related related to loading the Fill and Stroke dialog.

Hi,
As said by JazzyNico in the following bug reports, unfortunately gdb is currently broken with the trunk version... https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/965322
2012/4/25 mathog <mathog@...1176...>
The debugging tips for windows here:
http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Debugging_Inkscape#Debugging_Tips_fo...
gives this example (extraneous text removed, program output in []):
gdb file inkscape.exe inkscape.dbg run Tekening.svg [ Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 0x005c94ec in Inkscape::UI::Widget::Scalar::setValue () ] bt [ #0 0x005c94ec in Inkscape::UI::Widget::Scalar::setValue () #1 0x0044fc11 in Inkscape::CanvasXYGrid::readRepr () #2 0x0044de22 in Inkscape::CanvasXYGrid::onReprAttrChanged () ]
except that is NOT what I see on bt. What I see is always something like this:
(gdb) bt #0 0x7c912669 in stricmp () from C:\WINDOWS\system32\ntdll.dll #1 0x7c911649 in ntdll!RtlInitializeHandleTable () from C:\WINDOWS\system32\ntdll.dll #2 0x7c91911f in ntdll!RtlRealPredecessor () from C:\WINDOWS\system32\ntdll.dll #3 0x044bc000 in ?? () #4 0x00016000 in ?? () #5 0x000000f7 in ?? () #6 0x7c912482 in stricmp () from C:\WINDOWS\system32\ntdll.dll #7 0x77c2c3c9 in msvcrt!free () from C:\WINDOWS\system32\msvcrt.dll #8 0x003f0000 in ?? () #9 0x00000000 in ?? () (gdb)
Which is pretty useless. The Tips says that compiling with -g is not required. Is there some magic gdb incantation that must be applied to enable bt to show something useful, specifically, the names of the methods?
Thank you,
