Public bug reported:

When saving a copy of a PDF to the USB-stick (automaticvally mounted when 
plugged in, vfat) evince can save files, but it failes to create new 
directories, claiming insufficent permissions.
The strange thing is, other applications (like gedit, or 'mkdir' in a terminal) 
have no problems creating a new directory in exactly the same location, i.e. 
the user should be allowed to do so and mount options should be ok too.

Mount will show the the following about the USB-stick:
/dev/sdc1 on /media/anonymous/SPACELOOP type vfat 
(rw,nosuid,nodev,uid=1000,gid=1000,shortname=mixed,dmask=0077,utf8=1,showexec,flush,uhelper=udisks2)

When starting evince from the terminal the console-output does not show 
anything when reproducing the problem.
Except for the one line that seems to be there all the time right after 
starting evince:
(evince:30984): EvinceDocument-CRITICAL **: ev_document_get_n_pages: assertion 
'EV_IS_DOCUMENT (document)' failed
