hm... acroread4 does ok on my i386 sytems (all running -current and
with suse-* installed). the only glitch I have seen is this:

X connection to mega-bsd:10.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown).

that is, acroread doesn't like the ssh x11 port forwarding. I haven't
looked into this yet, as it's not critical for me...

but the linking is really funny...
