Inkscape hangs on startup for me too. strace shows it waiting on the futex line as for Tom Epperly:
futex(0x8663de0, FUTEX_WAIT, 2, NULL
I rebuilt the package with DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=nostrip to get
the following backtrace:
#0 0xffffe410 in __kernel_vsyscall ()

I'm guessing this is the same thing as #369608? Downgrading
libgc works for me, too.
