No problem.

It does work with Debian's kpdf (3.4.2-2 as of now), but this is *not*
the proper solution. I am all against dirty hacks.
Let's have kpdf's maintainer release a version with the fix backported
instead.
Note, however, that even with the fix included, kpdf is still a big CPU
hog... that means there are most probably other bugs around.
kpdf maintainer: please forward the relevant information upstream, with
my appreciation.
Cheers,
J.L.
