Worked fine for me right up until I upgraded to acroread5

Sounds like a problem with locale support under linux emulation. What
locale related environment variables do you have set? What happens if
you unset them?
If that does turn out to be the cause, you might consider trying an
upgrade to linux_base-7.1 and acroread-5.05. Works for me:
happy-idiot-talk:~:% setenv LC_ALL en_GB.ISO8859-1
happy-idiot-talk:~:% acroread
It even works if I set LC_ALL to something nonsensical.
