Thanks. Notwithstanding this, you should report this issue directly to
Debian. Devuan uses Debian's xpdf packages directly without recompilation.
A quick look at Debian's BTS shows both #996903 and #996832 which might be
similar.
I suggest you try to get a gdb trace and see if either of those bugs are related
and add you contribution there.
Thanks
