You might be able to workaround the bug by doing something like:
gconftool-2 --set /apps/metacity/window_keybindings/toggle_fullscreen
--type string "<Alt>F11"
(all on one line)

and then pressing alt F11.

Also, evince might suit your needs better than xpdf.  It has a
"Presentation mode" that you can get to by pressing F5, so you might
give it a try and see if it does what you want.
