Noted
This is now noted on the Inkscape Portable page as a known issue. A few apps have system detection and it doesn't play well with PAL's language switching with the platform.

Possible fix
I've looked into this briefly, and believe there may be a fix involving the way we handle Inkscape's language. I'll post further once I've tested.

Cool
If you can get it working, I'd love to get the fix in.
