@UWP Thank you for sharing your precise instructions. I used to use Jim Reeses's solution (compiling xpdf from source) and the segmentation fault went away. However, on a few of the pdf files that I view, I get the error "Bogus memory allocation size". I had to resort to evince or adobe reader to view these files. I installed libpoppler per your instructions re-installed ubuntu's xpdf, and removed my compiled xpdf, and the files with the bogus memory issue can now be viewed with xpdf. Life is good again....
