I hadn't heard of Synctex I confess, I just assumed that there was a
bug introduced into the newer Evince sources. What I've not been able
to check is whether the Evince pdf viewer program still responds to
links in the pdf in any way - the Mate Desktop I use has a clone of
Evince called Atril which continues to perform as Evince once did.
