Following comment #27 I rebuilt the precise source package using the patch from http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?msg=49;mbox=yes;bug=658264 and the crashes stopped for me.
I hope a fix can make it into 12.04.1 -- it would be frustrating if the LTS Ubuntu boxes that will be around for years all have a completely broken xpdf.
