Title:
  Inkscape freezes when pulling out retracted node handle

Status in Inkscape: A Vector Drawing Tool:
  Confirmed
Status in “inkscape” package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  Inkscape 0.48.1 r9760 on Xubuntu 11.04 64bit (standard version from
  the repositories)

  By working through the "Inkscape: Advanced" tutorial I found the
  following issue:

  When trying to pull out a retracted handle on a node in a bezier curve
  the handle appears close to the node but Inkscape becomes
  unresponsive, not reacting to any clicks or shortcuts. It still pops
  up a dialog whether to save the current document when trying to close
  the window, but the buttons in this dialog are also inactive. One has
  to forcefully kill it from htop or the like.

  Steps to reproduce:
  1) draw or select an arbitrary bezier curve
  2) retract the handles of a node by Ctrl+clicking on them
  3) try to pull the handles out again by Shift+dragging from the node

  edit: The system information below is for my 32bit system which shows the same behavior as the 64bit one from which I reported this bug.
