evince and atril issues after Thursday's -current upgrade


Since Thursday's -current upgrades (cairo, expat, bind, igt-gpu-tools, xorgproto, xlockmore), both atril and evince crashes when viewing some (but not all) pdf files, with the following error message when running from terminal:
Code:
free(): invalid pointer
Aborted
No issues when viewing the same files in qpdfview, masterpdfeditor, or acroread (wine).
Rebuilding atril didn't help.

I suspect this is the same issue has that being discussed here:
https://www.linuxquestions.org/quest...on-4175656118/

Seems the new cairo is either buggy, or things just need rebuilding to avoid some sort of incompatibility. Unclear which at present.
