I was able to duplicate your bug on my Ubuntu Feisty box. There is a bug against evince filed here:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=303365 It appears that evince always renders an entire page at a time. There are some reports that are very similar to yours -- but on the other hand, it doesn't explain why some files work and others don't. It also doesn't explain why gv is also be breaking for you, unless it does the same thing. But I suppose we've ruled out matplotlib as the culprit for now, unless a number of other tools/versions also have problems.
