known issue; using a similar creation chain, see the xpdf (left) and
Evince (right) rendering of the same file:

Curiously enough, the problem disappears when I just leave out
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc} and don't specify anything.
interesting ... I commented out '\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}',
rebuilt my sample case filed in that bug, and at 400% I do not
get jaggies any more either:

So the takeaway is that evince does not handle explicit font
encodings as well as xpdf; because font encodings are a fact
of life, that may help the upstream 'fix' evince's rendering
when 'fontenc' is present.
I have updated my upstream bug with new attachments. Thank
you.
That's one reason why I turned my back on both GNOME and
KDE, and opted for XFCE which is so much more modular and
tools-philosophy-compliant in its approach. I'm using plain
GTK apps as much as I can, so yeah, why not xpdf...
I am a long time, and well known XFCE adherent and advocate in
the CentOS IRC channel, and before. Some screenshots over

As you are probably aware, at XFCE 4 became an 'early adopter'
of those standards.
