No, but it works as well as it ever did - ISTR that gentoo dropped
support for it when a simple fix reinstated how it had previously
worked.  And one of our users posted a patch which he says makes it
work on some other PDFs.

In BLFS we probably have several packages with no active upstream,
but they all seem to work as well as they ever did.
