The measure tool was the latest tool in the development branch to be added as new tool, as well as to be included with a new button in the toolbox.

Maybe the revision which initially committed the new tool gives you some hints what is required to add a new tool to the tool box:
<http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~inkscape.dev/inkscape/trunk/revision/10259>
as well as later revisions fixing and enhancing the initial version of the tool, e.g.:
<http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~inkscape.dev/inkscape/trunk/changes?filter_file_id=measurecontext.cpp-20110606231610-cee15e52z2m31ssy-1>

If you have more questions specific to developing new code/tools for Inkscape, I would recommend to ask on the developers' mailing list (inkscape-devel).
