Try poppler 0.16.3 - with it, evince seems OK on your PDF.

That does indeed work. Built poppler 0.16.3 and rebuilt evince and the document opens fine. (There are some file-conflicts between poppler and poppler-glib tough, when using the 0.16.2 PKGBUILD. They now seem to provide GObject Introspection files.)
