GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 553880
gradients appear as shattered rectangles

will attach a sample. Open it in evince vs acroread. The blue gradient background renders fine in acroread. XPDF suffers the same problem as evince.

Thanks for the bug report. This particular bug has already been reported into our bug tracking system, but please feel free to report any further bugs you find. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 484643 ***
is this really a dupe? in 484643, xpdf renders the thing correctly while evince does not. In this bug here, both render incorrectly.
I'm not completely sure, but I'm sure it's a poppler issue. Attach your file as a new testcase to the poppler bug and if it's another issue poppler devs will open a new bug report. Thanks.
Upstream http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10942 says it's fixed, but it's definitely not completely fixed. Opening a new bug report as https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=24447
