I suspect that poppler has not, at least in the past, been clear
about what is private and what is public.  But many packages have
needed fixes over the years to cope with poppler changes.

At the moment I'm still building libreoffice (a fairly full build,
in terms of languages) using both the patches from Arch (for 0.70
and 0.71).  I hope to eventually get to inkscape - they have a patch
for 0.70 (I'm unclear how it compares to what we've had, it is
actually a series of patches so needs to be applied before trying to
compare the result) and then a sed to change all the GTrue and
similar to just true/false/whatever.
