Explanation of part of a PDF file

This segment of a PDF file seems to cause Poppler to crash. Xpdf doesn't seem to choke on it. If I remove the /I1 Do and /I2 Do lines, the PDF file works fine. Can someone give me a quick explanation of those might be doing? Let me know if you need to see other parts of the PDF file.

I1 and I2 are either images or form XObjects. Probably for some reason Poppler cannot decode their content and crashes. Even if I see the file I do not know the internals of Poppler so it is difficult to guess what it is causing the problem, unless it is an obvious error in the PDF structure.
