Actually *1* RC bug that was introduced by replacing the proper xpdf code with linking to poppler - a moving target that never cares for any other packages. poppler pulls in pthread and that goes boom. Yes, xpdf works very well. THose people having problem should simple compile a version from upstream without the pesty Debian changes to link against poppler, and it will work again.
