wow .. that *is* ugly.

it looks like a totally wrong font among other things.

I always *hate* to say those magic words "works for me" but I just tested
the latest evince from Sun thus :

as well as the evince from Blastwave which I *know* works well :

The latest version in snv_70 is evince 0.8.1 above but the version from
Blastwave is 0.9.0 and it does work. What we really need to look at is
evince 0.9.0 on Solaris 10 as you illustrate. I'll fire that up but I expect
the same results.
