Recent versions of Gtk+ have changed the location of the file storing entries 
for recently used files on linux (Gtk+/win32 uses a different location for the 
same file): on linux it is now saved as 
  ~/.local/share/recently-used.xbel
(in accordance with the XDG specification, I assume)

AFAIU the file is rescanned if modified on disk, to always offer an up-
to-date list in Inkscape's 'File > Open Recent…' menu. Note though that
bug #740843 was only mentioned after the discussion in comments #4-6
which explicitly referred to the list of recently-used files which is
stored in a single file per user and shared by all Gtk+ apps.
