I see the same 3 known failures building with fink and the same versions of the above 
dependencies, and also get the already mentioned Stix failure. Everything else succeeds 
on 10.5, but I get a different inkscape error on 10.7:

If you can reproduce this crash, please file a bug at www.inkscape.org
with a detailed description of the steps leading to the crash, so we can fix it.

This is obviously an inscape bug to be reported it to its respective maintainers. 
I found that on the Inkscape web site 0.48.2 is advertised as the stable release, 
so I tried downgrading to that version, but just get a similar crash on a different file.
