OK, it appears that this alone is not quite sufficient.  When I went to
run acroread, I discovered that the permissions on the linux compat /tmp
were incorrect.  Further investigation revealed some strange ownerships
under /usr/compat/linux.

Perhaps a script could be added to the port to touch up the
files/directories after the install?

Other than this, though, it appears that linux_base-8 works fine on
amd64.

I committed a very similar change.

This issue has been settled for a while now.

The linux_base-8 port looks like it has been corrected, but I need to look
at several other Linux base ports.  I kept the PR open and assigned to me
as a reminder to myself to take care of that.

In the future if you see a PR assigned to me that looks like it should be
closed, would you please e-mail me about it instead of just going ahead
and closing it?  I'm afraid that I'll lose track of problems that haven't
really been fixed.
