We recently hit this, or something similar, with firefox 1.5.0.x and 
acroread7.  The problem in our case was that /usr/pkg/bin/firefox is 
a script that explicitly sets up LD_LIBRARY_PATH to 
include /usr/pkg/lib so then acroread, when run from firefox, 
inherits that environment variable and starts potentially finding 
some of its shared libraries in /usr/pkg/lib rather than the linux 
ones.

Our current local fix is to clear LD_LIBRARY_PATH at the start of the 
acroread7 script.

I haven't checked yet whether the LD_LIBRARY_PATH setting in the 
firefox script is a recent change.

cheers
