Can you install evince-dbg and get a backtrace? in principle best is that
you set your ulimit for core files to something big:
	ulimit -c 100000
then run evince until it crashes, dumping a core, tehn run
	gdb evince core
and type bt and the prompt.

I don't believe that this has *anything* to do with libkpathsea5
by itself becasue evince is not linked to it (but libkpathsea4), but
you never know.

Best wishes

Norbert
