Proposing to revert the bug status changes and close this old report again - the elements which are missing in the PDF file if exported with more recent cairo versions are curved paths with very very thin (almost invisible) stroke widths.
The cairo issue is tracked for Inkscape in * Bug #1174909 “inkscape fails to print thin lines to PDF” https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/1174909 and is not related to the issue originally tracked in this report (bug #208217). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Studio Bugs, which is subscribed to inkscape in Ubuntu.

In the attached picture, the turtle sitting in the water has a mask with a gradient to make his feet fade into the water. He prints fine in 0.45.1, but in 0.46 branch he's gone. Exporting to bitmap works fine on 0.46. Printing to bitmap (Render as bitmap) works fine also on 0.46. Save as PDF via cairo keeps the turtle but loses all blurs (blurs not implemented in PDF) and the mask, so his legs are fully visible. I think PDF should be capable of a blend to transparent, because the leaves on the bushes blend to transparent and they export to pdf beautifully.
