I might have found what's causing it. Try setting environment variable
G_SLICE=always-malloc before evince runs and see if that stops the
crashes.
How to set the variable for evince started by AUC-TeX?

Best regards

Doesn't setting the environment variable in your .bashrc file or so
work? I don't think you have to do something special within Emacs.

Anything wrong with

M-x setenv RET

here?

Thanks! There is still a lot of functions of Emacs I'm not aware of :-)
