That's right, the base stream needs to be seekable or otherwise poppler does
not work at all. 

On the other hand i just tried to do 
./utils/pdftotext - < ~/okularfiles/pdf/alumnes_normativa.pdf 
and it created a -.txt file containing the text contents of
alumnes_normativa.pdf

I'm not sure what could cause that behaviour change. 

Which shell are you using?
I tried with GNU bash, version 3.2.33(1)-release (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu) and 
zsh 4.3.4 (x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu) and both worked
