Evince fullscreen doesn't appear to be working properly

Ever since that update to evince that made everything really pretty, the option to view documents in fullscreen mode doesn't work properly.  Instead of removing the title bar, a second title bar is created under the first one, and this second bar disappears after some time, and can be brought back with the mouse.  It is useful to note that this only occurs when I use my window manager of choice, xmonad, and presumably any other tiling window manager.  The only other one I tried was openbox, and while using that evince performed admirably.  Is this a bug with evince not playing nicely with tiling window managers?  Is there a workaround that is known?  I would appreciate any help with this issue.  Here's the very top left bit of a screenshot (because of arch's rule about no images larger than 250x250):
Edit: got that image link working

Re: Evince fullscreen doesn't appear to be working properly

I went ahead and filed a bug report for this because it sure seems like this is a problem with evince: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=742736
