Yes, indeed, it does.  Also editing 'acroread' script to put
GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=1 in front of 'exec' in a LaunchBinary function
provides, in this moment, a workaround.

Missing on x86_64 gtk2-engines.i686 does not seem to be critical but
that surely generates a lot and lot of spillage like that:

(acroread:2509): Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in
module_path: "clearlooks",

which does go away after gtk2-engines.i686 package is installed.
