Error at compile time about fillGooString() missing, with a very recent trunk ? 
If so, I've just fixed it when testing compilation on CentOS 6 that ships with 
poppler 0.12.4.

Hum I guess you run into cross-heap issues related to different versions of the 
MSVC Runtime...

Yes, there was something missing in frmts/makefile.vc. I think I've just fixed 
it (untested though)

So 'svn update' and retry
