Summary: Export to PDF is not good and doesn't match the original SVG
Initial Comment:
Usually, exporting from SVG to PDF creates a files that doesn't match at
all with the original SVG file.
This is the original SVG http://img166.imageshack.us/img166/9091/

This is the result http://img181.imageshack.us/img181/2434/

Your pdf looks perfect in Adobe Acrobat. 0.45 exports your SVG just as
nicely. Please, before complaining about misrendering, always try your
files in an authoritative renderer, which is Acrobat for PDF and Batik for
SVG.
Note to Alan and others doing bug triaging: even if you don't know if this
is a valid bug in Inkscape, but if the bug has some SVG/PDF files attached,
it would help developers tremendously if you test these files in the
authoritative renderers (see above) and report the results. Thanks!

I think the cairo exporter has been postponed to 0.46.. but maybe you have
tested 0.45 anyway?
Viewing your pdf on Windows (using Adobe reader) looks okay. Exporting
with 0.45 looks slightly better, but still not perfect. Your screenshot
with an almost blank screen is something I have never seen. Since you seem
to be using Mac OS X maybe you should compare results with this guy:
Bug #1650717 - pdf exported could not be viewed by Apple Preview

PDF is very much a work in progress, it should have a HUGE
WARNING emblazoned on it. It is great that it works at all,
it is a long way from being finished.
At least part of the problem is that you need to convert
Text to paths. that much should be fixed as the PDF
exporter has since been changed to avoid data loss and
performs the conversion automatically.
the rest might have to do with clip path bugs and you should
read through the tracker (bugs and requests) for other PDF
issues and you might be able to confirm the issue.
if you have used the experimental blur features they are
known to be not supported in yet.
if you have windows then testing with a nightly build should
be relatively easy.
At the moment there are even 3 differnt PDF exporters
although there is a rough plan to merge at least the Cairo
based PDF exporters before the next release.

You can also try 0.44pre1 or a nightly build. Waiting until
0.45 with testing might result in waiting until 0.46 for a
fix..

Since you don't tell what version you are using I guess that
it might be a release such 0.43 or 0.44, or possibly the
latest svn trunk.
0.43 first writes a postscript file and calls ps2pdf to
create a pdf. This will always lose pdf features not
available in postscript.
0.44 came with a new pdf exporter that writes pdf files
directly. Several bugs have been reported and fixed since
the release.
0.45 will have yet a new pdf exporter based on Cairo,
already available in svn trunk.
Could you please update to the latest svn trunk, if you are
not? If you still see something being wrong, could reduce
the example file to only contain one or two objects? and
then play with the object styles to see what breaks to
exporter? Once you have a minimal example demostrating a
well defined problem it will be easier to help you
