Ok, googling found one hit, and that is a patch from redhat for poppler
0.6.2 that seems to not have been included:

It moves the declaration of ObjectStream form XRef.cc to XRef.h and
defines getObjStr.
https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-extras-commits/2007-November/msg08712.html

WIth that it compiles fine.

Bummer.

I am asking on the poppler IRC channel. No idea what will happen.

Best wishes

Norbert
