Hmmm, I'll attach it anyway, but it seems to from the last-known-good run. If
I move .inkscape out of the way, and run inkscape now, it crashes before even
creating a .inkscape directory.
I'll answer Wolfram's questions here, if that's OK:

Yes, corrupt stack. Not very useful, I'm afraid :(

I had already checked that, but I went through all of inkscape's dependencies
(and all the sub-dependencies of libs that inkscape uses that depend on
libexpat), and manually ran prelink -u on them. Then I did a global prelink
-ua, just to be doubly sure. No effect.

In the process of checking the dependencies, I verified that all of the
dependent packages are straight from debian sid.

Hmm. That's strange. I've purged and reinstalled inkscape from sid, and ldd
still mentions expat for me. I can't think of anything that would be
different here from there, except for themes, but I tried setting a different
GTK theme earlier, and nothing changed. It's probably not getting as far as
themes anyway. I'll attach a copy of my ldd output too, just in case it
helps.
So far, all I have is: 1) it's happening very early, during lib initialisation
or before command line processing (since inkscape --help crashes just the
same). 2) it looks (to me) like a null pointer dereference (from strace's
last lines: SIGSEGV (Segmentation fault) @ 0 (0)) and 3) It's something that
seems to be unique to my system.
Do either of you know what the next usual step is after loading libXext and
libXcursor when and X and/or gtk app starts up? I tried stepping through the
code with gdb/ddd, but I ran into some problem that I forget now -- probably
just due to my lack of gdb skills.

Nope, it's a standard sid kernel:
Linux version 2.6.11-powerpc ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) (version gcc 3.3.5 (Debian
1:3.3.5-12)) #1 Mon Apr 4 04:03:40 CEST 2005
I think I've upgraded from 2.6.9 since I reported this, too.
I guess I'll try switching back to sid's X server when I get time later
tomorrow, to see if that helps. Let me know if I can do anything else :)
