Stack trace is the same as the one in
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/724602 but unfortunately, I'm not able to
reproduce the crash with the PDF in that bug report, which makes
figuring out what happened much harder.

Can you trigger this crash reliably or did it happen just once?

Does it crash with other PDFs also?

If you are able to reliably reproduce this crash with your PDF, having
that PDF would be helpful for fixing the problem.
