Bug#782823: Evince always crashes when called without arguments, error "rangecheck -15 \n Segmentation fault"

Package: evince
Version: 3.14.1-2


When I click on an Evince launcher from the Cinnamon menu, it causes
Evince to appear briefly, then close. When I type "evince" in a
terminal, the same thing happens, but I see the error text

rangecheck -15
Segmentation fault

If I call "evince /tmp/test.pdf", it opens successfully, although I do
see the error "(evince:1219): Gtk-WARNING **:
gtk_widget_size_allocate(): attempt to allocate widget with width -76
and height 17". Similarly, opening downloaded PDFs from Firefox works
OK.

This bug behaves similarly to
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=762719, but doesn't
appear to be the same one; I can reproduce that bug, but it gives
different error messages etc. Also, this bug is not dependant on the
previous file opened.
