ah ok - I found the inx for compiling 48.4 for OSX via macports, so now I understand. But before even getting there I found this http://inkscape.13.n6.nabble.com/Mac-OS-X-0-48-4-RC5-td4966075.html and that installed a working version of 48.4 on OSX 10.8.2 in about 2 minutes flat, and also solved a p...
