The devel/boehm-gc port is only at version 6.8.  If you have 7.0, then
you've installed something outside of ports which is not supported.  I
recommend you clean up any boehm-gc bits on your system, then go
to /usr/ports/devel/boehm-gc, and run make rmconfig.  Then install
boehm-gc with a default config, and try out inkscape.

To be clear, inkscape works fine for me (that I've been able to test) on
RELENG_7.
