I've had a helpful response.  It turns out that there was a problem
that's been fixed in more recent version of glib, but referencer wasn't
getting rebuilt against the fixed glib because it was breaking due to
changes in poppler.  That's happening because the ubuntu package is the
old 1.0.2 version which abused poppler a bit, which was fixed in 1.0.3.

So this gets fixed when the ubuntu package syncs with the latest
referencer release.

Cheers,
John
