Try to select some text in the middle of a line. For example I'm on page 216 and I try to hilight POSIX1-200x but it also grabs the line number. I can imagine the line number being grabbed when I select across a line break but this is text in the middle of a line. 

When I try to paste that hilighted text it pastes the line number and a long space and the text that I actually selected.

Steps to reproduce:

#rpm -q evince
evince-0.6.0-9.el5

1) Download the attached .pdf file and open it in evince.
2) In this case, navigate to page XBD 216 and look for any instance of POSIX.1-200x.

3) Attempt to highlight only POSIX.1-200x.

4) Actual results: POSIX1-200x is highlighted but it also grabs the line number.

5) Expected results: Since we're highlighting text in the *middle* of a line it, shouldn't also grab the line number.
