It has display-problems. For example prettybox, when I first open AR5,
it looks like this:

When I force the window to re-draw itself (move offscreen and then
onscreen), it draws fine. 

It almost always occurs in full-screen mode. My theory is that the first
draw never works, but subsequent ones usually do. The green bullets (from
prettybox) always appear as they should:

(the white spot is because there was a GIMP window above)

xpdf and gpdf correctly display the pdf.

Could it be that AR5 uses gs in some way?

Anyway, this is likely a debian sarge problem (I am running prerelease from
12/04). Maybe we can find out what causes this so I can file a bug-report.
