Yes. This most likely compiller + supplied STL issue. I am not sure what 
kind of  .ps file curruption you expirinced but try LANG=C inkscape and 
see if it helps. I'll be able to check -STABLE issues not early this 
weekends.
Btw, backtrace from the sf page doesn't look like actual crash. Did you run

$gdb inkscape
(gdb)run
<something_that_breaks_inkscape_here/>
(gdb)bt full

?

All the best,
Alexander.
