           Summary: evince hangs if a ceritain pdf is loaded
           Product: Ubuntu
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: i386
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: evince
        AssignedTo: seb128 at ubuntu.com
        ReportedBy: jorgepeixoto at redecasd.ita.br
         QAContact: desktop-bugs at lists.ubuntu.com


typing evince nasty.pdf in a terminal, and then instructiong evince to go to
page 21 (by typing 21 in the box and hitting enter) hangs evince (it stops
responding to any input). In the terminal the following nasty messages are shown:

jorge at jorge06:~/samba_publico/gaga/ele-39$ evince nastybug.pdf
*** glibc detected *** free(): invalid pointer: 0x08306890 ***
Xlib: unexpected async reply (sequence 0xca2)!
Killed

Of course the "Killed" message is shown after I "force quit" evince. 
the same pdf can be read flawlessly (well, except for some error messages in the
terminal, see log file attached) in xpdf. 

This happened in Breezy (which I update daily) , in a Athlon XP 2600+, MSI KT4
Ultra motherboard. The computer's FSB has been underclocked from 133 MHz to 128
MHz to become stable, but, anyway, I don't think this evince problem is a
hardware one.
