Summary:                    Segmentation Fault on a specific document
Description: 
I recently ran across a pdf document that causes xpdf to issue a
Segmentation Fault.  The document is located at:

        http://mises.org/books/historynot.pdf
  
It loads fine into xpdf, but it consistently crashes as you step forward,
usually on the 5th page or try to click on the Preface link.  There is no
similar problem when using a current version of acroread.

I reported this to Glyph and Cog, but thought I would mention it here in
case it turns out to be a Solaris/SPARC specific problem.

Hi,
can you please reproduce the crash with the package found at
http://www.opencsw.org/~benny/xpdf-3.02,REV=2009.07.28.16.37-SunOS5.8-sparc-UNCOMMITTED.pkg.gz
and send me the resulting core file to benny at opencsw.org. I am unable to
produce a crash running on SPARC Solaris 8. In addition please show a ldd
`which xpdf` and pmap/pstack of the running xpdf PID?
Thanks in advance.
