Thanks for your report.

The issue is in Poppler (the library used by Evince to render PDF). In particular, in the cairo frontend.

The issue can be reproduced using Poppler's own tools: pdftoppm renders the document fine, where pdftocairo does not.

Please, file a bug in Poppler's bugzilla at
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=poppler
