Poppler error: "floating point exception" (lenny)



Hello,

I am getting a "floating point exception" error message from Evince when 
opening some PDF files (a sample is linked bellow). The file gets opened 
but as soon as I'm reading pages (page 1, page 2, page 3...), at some 
point Evince closes by itself. When running Evince from command line, as 
soon as it breaks, I can see the above mentioned error.

Sample error (PDF, ~3.1 MiB):
http://service.us.panasonic.com/OPERMANPDF/KXTG7531-MUL.PDF

(I have tested with other PDF files from Panasonic site and they just 
crash in the same manner).

The GIMP gives the same error:

***
sm01@stt008:~/Desktop$ gimp KXTG7531-MUL.PDF
/usr/lib/gimp/2.0/plug-ins/poppler: fatal error: Floating point exception
***

Can someone please confirm this problem? 

My wild guess is that it could have been generated by the latest 
"poppler" update¹ because I was not experiencing this issue before. I am 
running an updated Lenny (64 bits).
