I downloaded and installed an svn version. Is this 0.48? Post 0.48? Prior to 0.48? The splash screen still says 0.47 but this may be spurious. Source forge says it is version 22759
The SVN version is outdated.
After the release of Inkscape 0.47 the source code repository was moved to launchpad (in December 2009) [1]. The repository now uses bazaar instead of Subversion.
The SVN source code repository for Inkscape trunk on sf.net is still accessible but no longer updated, the recent revisions (after 22583) are for other branches (web site, testsuite, ...) hosted at sf.net that have not yet been moved to launchpad [2].
You can find more information about bazaar and accessing the current development branch at http://www.inkscape.org/bzr.php.
