Not quite, but enough of a clue.  I needed to link:

-rwxr-xr-x  2 root  wheel  22429 Jul 27 05:24 /emul/linux/lib/ld-linux.so.1*
-rwxr-xr-x  2 root  wheel  22429 Jul 27 05:24 /emul/linux/lib/ld-linux.so.1.8.12*

The 'ld-linux.so.1' file was missing.  After this the Acrobat reader
starts up OK.

I believe the 'ld-linux.so' files are the ELF versions.  I also have
a.out ones, which presumably might be needed for older binaries.

-rwxr-xr-x  2 root  wheel  104240 Jul 27 05:24 /emul/linux/lib/ld.so*
-rwxr-xr-x  2 root  wheel  104240 Jul 27 05:24 /emul/linux/lib/ld.so.1.8.12*

>From reading the Debian ld.so Makefile the a.out ld.so doesn't have a
version suffix.
