They still haven't fixed the #1 critical "it doesn't bloody work bug" 
though.

It still segfaults on a utf8 locale, so one must run it as (for example)

LC_ALL=en_AU /usr/local/Acrobat5/bin/acroread

. I've modified the acroread script to automatically set the correct 
locale, but it's still just STUPID, given how easy it is to just warn 
"cannot run in utf8 locale, switching to non-utf8 locale..." and set a 
sensible locale in the 'acroread' script.
