Evince is started by AUCTeX, so I follow the instruction "Obtaining a
stack trace using GDB with a running program" from
http://live.gnome.org/GettingTraces.

ps aux|grep evince|grep -v grep

yields 2 results:

jsbien   15624  0.9  0.8 1287728 71492 ?       Sl   16:10   0:01 /usr/bin/evince file:///mnt/MyBookT2/BitBucket/Parkosz/parkosz-traktat/Latin/ParkoszLatin.pdf
jsbien   21546  0.0  0.0 187216  4600 ?        Ssl  Nov15   0:00 /usr/lib/evince/evinced

I choose the first PID.

In this case the window has not simply vanished, which is typical for my
problem, but freezed:
