Not exactly your installation, but the build you've picked up. I've verified 
this is a valid geospatial PDF file recognized by the GDAL PDF driver.
I assume your GDAL build has only write support for geospatial PDF (which 
doesn't require any third-party library), but not read support that requires 
linking to a third-party library, like Poppler or Podofo. Unfortunately 
gdalinfo --formats can only report read/write support even when it's write-
only.
