I got this message, but if I got the one (from Vasilis Vasaitis) I must have 
forgot about it or missed it. I've had problems like this before not received 
other responses to bug reports. I'm simply using "reportbug" and assumed it 
would take care of any CC for me. I did ask about it on some debian mailing list 
some time ago but I don't think I got any responses.

Yes, it freezes my evince-gtk 2.30.3-3 running on up-to-date Sid.

What a terrible PDF title. And the window title is a mess. Perhaps because I'm 
lacking some non-western fonts or something.
