I just played around with Inkscape on a netbook and I think I've figured
out what's happening:

The Inkscape window does not fit vertically on a 1024x600 display, you
can't even resize it to be smaller than ~700px high. When the maximise
hint is set on the window, whether it's from Maximus on the window
titlebar itself, Metacity doesn't know what to do so it just removes the
window borders but doesn't resize it (or tries and fails).

I'm not sure what maximus or metacity can do in this circumstance (the
same issue happens with Igano from gnome-games), as it won't force and
application to be smaller than it's requested width.
