Pino, what is the status of this bug? For the benefit of the bug report, I've tried Simon's patch and I do not get the expected results.
I rebuilt poppler with the second nmudiff [0] and then built evince
with that version of poppler installed.

[ Simon McVittie ]
* Non-maintainer upload.
* GfxFont::getAlternateName(char const*) was new in 0.26.5-2~;
add a symbols file so that anything using that symbol gets the
appropriate versioned dependency. (Closes: #767659)

The important part there is: libpoppler-glib8 (>= 0.24.0) - to fix the
bug, I was expecting that to be 0.26.5
The dependency chain is evince -> libevdocument3-4 -> libpoppler-glib8
-> libpoppler46.
evince builds libevdocument3-4, poppler builds libpoppler-glib8.
Equally, if the bug was fixed as I expected it, this should fail:

Simon: have I done something wrong in trying to replicate the fix?
Sadly, I've been unable to trace through the code to see where
CairoFreeTypeFont is exposed in the glib bindings or how to update
libpoppler-glib to make libevdocument3-4 depend on libpoppler-glib8 >>
0.25.
