While downloading reader 7.0.1 for linux, I read this from adobe site:

Does makempy.pl need acroread to work ?

well, we can comment the line so that users can tweak it themselves:
#   "acrobat"     => \$amethod , # nowadays the reader is not that clear about 
this being permitted

i don't think it's a real problem since providing a pdf -> ps switch in acroread otherwise makes no sense: a shell is a program, if written to a file one needs a program to handle it afterwards, etc
looks more like some precaution for real big misuse
