mhh, no usertags.
How are you going to track these bugs without usertags?

I can't see any package in experimental featuring this change. Usually
there would be a package in experimental, used to test other packages
against, before MBFing.

I haven't looked deep, but I believe the inkscape is not affected:
the version currently in debian contains a double build system
autoconf+cmake: the autoconf one seems to be alling `freetype-config`,
whereas cmake seems be doing something else (possibly pkg-config, or
not); and we're using the cmake build system.
FTR, the next major upstream release (0.93) will have only cmake.
