I'll go on playing with this tomorrow, but the problem is definately
font related.  Acroread is trying to extract fonts from the PDF
document, and for some reason it wants to put the extracted font files
in /emul/linux.  I'm quite sure this problem will only show up with
some PDF files, not all.  The one I'm trying to view can be fetched
from http://www.irf.com/product-info/datasheets/smartfet.htm by
clicking the IR6210 link.
