I noticed the same thing on 2.2.5-STABLE a few days old.
With a matrox millenium (MGA - SVGA server) and XFree86 3.3.1 and
a bits per pixel depth of 24 (startx -- -bpp 24) the acrobat display
is messed up with predominantly blue letters; but with pixel depths
of 16 and 32, it's OK.
Using the Xinside (Xig) X server and 24 bit pixel depth it's OK.
This is with 3.01 Acrobat (3.00 segfaulted as you saw).

P.S. Another X thing - netscape 4.04 will get a SEGV if running
XFree86 3.3.1 24 bpp after restoring the stack on sigreturn
because of a SIGALRM while having just read the awt/MToolKit
class, and ...
The Xig server sails through it? (This at http://www.onsale.com
when it starts the first Java applet).
