this is the confusion of copyright and trademark Bryce talked about.
the Inkscape logo *is* GPL, it is provided with full sources in the CVS: 
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/inkscape/inkscape_project/artwork/logo-2-color.svg?rev=1.2&view=log

if Inkscape people request trademark protection for it, then the logo 
would be both GPL and nor legally reusable outside some guidelines.
