Context: (Verdana) Greek letters on Inkscape SVG's composed on old laptop show up as (Verdana) Latin counterparts when the files are loaded into Inkscape on a new laptop.

The only thing I can think of off hand is that you had additionally fonts installed on the old machines and not currently installed on the new one. Inkscape will default to a similiar font as it can if the correct font is not installed.
I considered that originally, but the text is in verdana, and Inkscape (on the new laptop) recognizes (and displays) it as such. These images are finished, so it isn't imperative that I edit these files (the .eps files I embed in my thesis, also copied from the old laptop, are rendering correctly), but if I did have to update them for some reason, I would have to correct all of the Greek letters. --
Some more ideas.
Does replacing the incorrect symbol with a correct one still show incorrectly?
Have you tried it with a different font that also has Greek letters and see if that makes a difference?
See how the text shows in other apps. does it show correctly?
Did you shift to/from UTF/Unicode/etc or change locales? I don't know if this could be caused by that or not.
OS, Inkscape version, maybe a sample to look at, and any other info you think matters
These should give use an idea of whether or not it's Inkscape specific and give you better details for filing a bug report with us assuming that it's our bug.
