No, it just does the wrong thing, which is what i filled the bug report.
A typical two sided document is as follows :
Cover
Page 1 Page 2
Page 3 Page 4
Page 5 Page 6
...
(Well, The Cover would be the first page of the pdf, and Page 1 would be the
second, but this is a detail).
The two-sided view of evince does :
Cover Page 1
Page 2 Page 3
Page 4 Page 5
...
Which does the wrong thing, having the facing pages in the two-sided view,
being not the facing sides of the document, but both opposite sides of a page.
