I haven't seen it happen spontaneously myself, but I can reproduce it by
deleting files into an empty trash, or by emptying the trash. Basically
anything that causes the trash icon to change.

Just tested. Bug still present for me, on a current Feisty machine. What
is more, it seems that closing Evince alone doesn't kill the gs
process... considering the possible DoS aspect of this bug, maybe it
warrants more than a Medium importance?

[GPL GS WORKS] evince (gs-esp) memory leak
Ouch. I just got hit by this when trying to insert an .eps into
OpenOffice 2.2. Within seconds gs was using over 1gb of memory, and the
computer was extremely unresponsive.
Dia export to EPS using Pango fonts didn't cause any trouble, but using
Latin-1 fonts did.
