I tested the following setup (all checkouts were the current version as of
about yesterday):

cairo eb2a73ba6d290497cabb0f917c0375eea919178e (1.9.1 series)
poppler 26a8217160c1eaeeadb92023b27e68f402e38dd0 + Carlos's patch
evince r3496

Other libraries are whatever's in the current Ubuntu 8.10 (Intrepid)
distribution.

Loading, editing a form field in, then saving the affected PDF still results in
a zero-byte file, with no errors reported on the command line or via the GUI. 

Oddly enough, this version of evince is supposed to deal with this situation
from that end; see GNOME bug 566791, which was about the same problem, and this
revision, which was included in the tested version:

http://svn.gnome.org/viewvc/evince?view=revision&revision=3493

Is the above setup working for anyone? I may be testing it wrong, but I don't
think so; I'm quite sure that my testing copy of evince is linked to my testing
copy of the poppler libs, and so on.

Is there any further debugging or tracing that I could do that might be of some
help?
