Using the DLLs from #12 did not change behavior.

However, I have minimized the number of steps to get the correct behavior.

1. Start up Inkscape
2. Selected the Calligraphy tool by using my tablet. This shows that selecting the toolbar works, but when I try to draw on the document, nothing happens.
2. Open the dialog through File -> Input Devices...
3. From the dropdown list of devices select "WACOM Tablet Eraser"
4. Select "screen" on the right-handside dropdown menu (the one that currently says "disabled")
5. Hit "close"
6. Attempt to draw with the tablet on the document. Drawing occurs and the sensitivity to pressure and angle is as expected.

Note: Steps 2 through 5 were performed with the mouse.

Ways to get incorrect behavior after program is in correct state (as described above):
A. Restart Inkscape. This causes the previous behavior to occur, that is, the tablet cannot draw on the document.
B. Open the "Input Devices..." dialog, select "WACOM Tablet Eraser" and set the right-hand side dropdown menu to say "disabled", then hit "close"

Clicking save on each individual device listed in the dialog has no affect on the behavior after restart. Is this dialog from GTK+? Is there a debug build with lots of verbose logging I could run this test case through that would be helpful?
