Regarding Dimitrios first comment: Indeed, this might be a problem because the maintainer likely focuses on bugs in newer Ubuntu releases. This is understandable.
/But/: 6.06 _is_ supposed to be a "LTS" distribution! There is still official support. /Plus/, AFAIK, the problem still persists with newer distributions, and Adobe Reader is a /critical/ third-party-application for many users. For many documents and tasks there is no alternative. The problem with the whole system freezing/crashing because of a single non-root user application consuming too much memory is still present even in the newest Jaunty pre-releases. This is a _really_ nasty thing, and it is also covered in Bug #159356.
