I've just had a similar problem with saving as .xcf.  From the
junk_from_gimp.txt file in /tmp/tmpwudXWH/ the problem stems from this
png file which doesn't seem to get created:

(#<error PROCEDURE 134> ("Procedure execution of file-png-load failed:
Could not open '/tmp/tmpwudXWH/text4233.png' for reading: No such file
or directory"))

This corresponds to an empty text tag in XML that Inkscape created.  I
found this at the very end of my svg file:

  <text
     xml:space="preserve"
     
style="font-size:40px;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;font-weight:bold;font-stretch:normal;text-align:start;line-height:125%;letter-spacing:0px;word-spacing:0px;writing-mode:lr-tb;text-anchor:start;fill:#000000;fill-opacity:1;stroke:none;font-family:Droid
 Sans;-inkscape-font-specification:Droid Sans Bold"
     x="252.5"
     y="62.890442"
     id="text4233"
     sodipodi:linespacing="125%"><tspan
       sodipodi:role="line"
       id="tspan4235"
       x="252.5"
       y="62.890442" /></text>

Using a text editor I removed that snippet from the XML and I can now
save as .xcf without problem.

What's annoying is that Inkscape (version 0.48.0 r9654) created this
text object that I could neither see nor select.  I created this svg
document in Inkscape.  At some point my document did have some text in
it, but long before saving I had deleted it.  Since Inkscape had no
problem exporting other similar documents as .xcf, I tried methodically
deconstructing this document eliminating layers and objects until I had
nothing left, and even then saving as .xcf would fail.  So the bug is
really that Inkscape left this empty <text> tag which I couldn't select
using "Select All in All Layers".
