Thank you Albert for looking into this. I have to say I quickly tried to do what you suggested, but didn't succeed. Unfortunately I don't have the time to look into this in such detail. The other information I can provide you with is:
1. Bug tracker in Launchpad: https://bugs.launchpad.net/poppler/+bug/1325899 . The rendering issue has been verified by other users. 2. The latest instruction was to submit a bug report upstream (this one) against poppler. 3. This problem does not arise when using xpdf (instead of evince) on my system.
