Bug Description
When using evince, highlighting text is a risky proposition.
I have managed to make evince crash pretty consistently doing the following:
1. Open a PDF
2. With the left mouse button, click and hold at a point to the right of the end
of a line of text.
3. Move the mouse around while holding the button down.
4. You may have to try this a few times before evince crashes.

File on which the behavior is easily duplicated
This file allows you to duplicate this bug pretty easily. I have so far failed
to duplicate this bug with other PDF files (I've tried about 3), so maybe this
file is just h4xed.
The irony is delicious...
