Bug#679073: poppler causes crash of pdftex?

[Hilmar Preusse <hille42@web.de>]

Hi Loic,

the submitter of Bug#679073 experiences a crash of pdftex. He managed
to generate a core dump and a backtrace. It looks like this:

Core was generated by `pdftex -ini -jobname=etex -progname=etex
-translate-file=cp227.tcx *etex.ini'.
Program terminated with signal 11, Segmentation fault.
#0  0xe594314c in ?? ()
(gdb) bt
#0  0xe594314c in ?? ()
#1  0x40158290 in PopplerCache::PopplerCache(int) () from /usr/lib/libpoppler.so.5
#2  0x40124530 in ?? () from /usr/lib/libpoppler.so.5
Cannot access memory at address 0x0
#3  0x40124530 in ?? () from /usr/lib/libpoppler.so.5
Cannot access memory at address 0x0
Backtrace stopped: previous frame identical to this frame (corrupt stack?)

Which gives the idea that the problem occurs when code from the
poppler lib is executed. Could you evaluate?

Thanks,
  Hilmar
