reposting - former message too long!
Wolf -
The project moves forward and to my great surprise -- almost success.
Unlike your build, mine contains no text or numbers within the inkscape screen. Little square boxes are rendered - one for each character. See below. There's a series of error messages relating to GLib-GObject and Pango (also see below) so they are likely the cause of the problem. Everything else seems to be working (very minimal testing) and quite encouraging.
Any suggestions for fixing the problem?
I haven't built the Mac package yet - this is just based on executing the file in /Build/bin
