acroread problem: symbol lookup error: /usr/pkg/xorg/lib/libICE.so.6: undefined symbol: __sF

["Steven M. Bellovin" <smb%cs.columbia.edu@localhost>]

I just upgraded to 4.99.12 from 25 February.  When I click on a PDF
link from native-compiled Firefox 2.0.0.2, I get

        /usr/pkg/Acrobat7/Reader/intellinux/bin/acroread: symbol lookup
error: /usr/pkg/xorg/lib/libICE.so.6: undefined symbol: __sF

If, otoh, I open the downloaded PDF file from a shell prompt, it just
works.  This problem started after my kernel+userland upgrade; these are the
