By arrows - you mean connector lines (with arrow markers)?

possibly related:

Bug #556467 “connectors between groups misplaced (regression)”: https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/556467

or, a regression as described here (not filed separately): https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/552289/comments/4

but difficult to tell without actual access to the SVG file: please report a bug and attach the file in question for further investigation.

Dear Chris and ~suv,

I've opened this bug report and uploaded the svg file. Hope this help to check whether it is a potential bug or not.

I suspect that this is due to nested <svg> elements; there were some fairly serious issue in 0.47 with those, where the positions would get messed up and go weird and occasional crashes would result. It happened that in some way the internal representation was incorrect (relative positions in the child <svg> elements) but Inkscape didn't quite realise that and rendered the positions correctly (mostly). This may have been fixed for 0.48, so that may be the reason why - it's rendering them *properly* now, and so it doesn't appear the same as in 0.47. If you can provide the actual files you're experiencing it with the issue could be analysed more accurately - it may be that there is a bug in 0.48 and it would be helpful to verify it.
