[Bug 1273779] [NEW] poppler in trusty lets packages ftbfs when building pdf docs

[Matthias Klose]

Public bug reported:

in http://people.ubuntuwire.org/~wgrant/rebuild-ftbfs-test/test-
rebuild-20140127-trusty.html

the following packages fail to build when generating the pdf docs: gdb-
doc, iproute2, cvs, gnupg-doc, autoconf. checked main only, not yet
universe.

checked that this can be reproduced when poppler is built with the
current gcc-4.8 and gcc-4.7 releases, both fsf and linaro branches.  The
problem is seen on 32bit archs only (tested on i386 and armhf).  It can
be worked around by building poppler with -O0.

This may be a GCC issue or a poppler issue, however because it is seen
with the stable gcc-4.7 builds too, it might point to a poppler issue.
