Actually, the real reason is that you clicked so close to the center of 
the circle that it is snapped to the crosshair.    Then Ipe has no 
information based on which to compute the scaling transformation 
(because the starting point is identical to the origin).

This is a well-known bug, somehow it has never been filed (nor fixed!)

Who wants to file it?
