Bug Description

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.

Not sure that's a poppler issue, that happens in a trusty pbuilder (not using proposed versions) or there was no recent update there

gdb-doc builds fine when downgrading texlive-latex-recommended to 2013.20131219-1 (https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/texlive-base/2013.20131219-1/+build/5369883/+files/texlive-latex-recommended_2013.20131219-1_all.deb), seems like the issue could rather be with the new texlive-base

  * Revert the -O0 change. Apparently a texlive issue. LP: #1273779.
