Reproduced Inkscape 0.91 and trunk rev. 14564 when importing with the internal system.
Not reproduced when using Poppler/Cairo import.

Tested  with Poppler 0.12.1 (on Windows XP 32-bit) and Poppler 0.33.0
(Xubuntu 15.10 64-bit).

That said, Poppler/Cairo is not the default option.I didn't check the
issue tracker and the dev. list, but it should be interesting to compare
both options and switch to Poppler/cairo as default option if the
overall result is better than with the internal import.
