AR 5.x won't work and Xpdf won't handle it either. If Adobe wants to 
encourage use of this level of pdf then they should upgrade the Linux 
version of Acrobat Reader to match.  Most users are on Windows but many 
content providers are on Linux.

Thanks in advance.
fyi: pdf layer support is built into context
an example of usage can be seen at:
  http://www.pragma-ade.com/present/talks/fifteen.pdf
(this presentation was made for dante's 15 anniversary; it works on windows and 
mac, starts when one clicks on the dot at the bottom bar; mp3 not included -)

The command:
  \showlayoutcomponents
gives access to all the layout components in the context stack/builder (given 
that the layer pannel is open)

btw, for advanced interactive purposes layers are sort of useless since 
annotation are stacked and cannot be hidden by layers.
