I don't understand what you mean with 'just ran it in X, which is fine
by me'.

Which version of Inkscape did crash with above quoted dyld error message
a) the binary package Inkscape 0.46 you downloaded from inkscape.org (or
sourceforge.net) or
b) one you installed with MacPorts using 'sudo port install inkscape' ?

Do you still see the same crash and error message with the most recent
prerelease build of Inkscape 0.47pre3?
