It's close enough for GNOME work.  ;-}  It remembers the setting
across invocations (which is a substantial relief), but doesn't seem
to guess right based on locale (which is sad the first time you use
it).

The only problem with that bug report is that it insists that evince
uses the locale to determine default paper size.  I'm quite sure that
either it doesn't do that, or the way in which it does it is bogus.  I
have not found a locale setting that gives me anything other than A4
paper by default, which means that around 7/10 of the things I print
have the top chopped off by the printer, depending on whether I
remember to set this first or bother to reprint afterwards.  :-/
