Larry,
I'm really sorry you have been waiting for so long. I thought this had been
resolved. These lockers are very complicated (as you know) and I don't
have access to an IRIX 6.3 machine so I can't test anything. I'll try to
do the best I can to help you but I can't risk breaking what is working
now.
At this point IRIX < 6.5 is unsupported (except to the extent that I
try where possible to make things work with symlinks without being
able to test). Can't you update the machine?
I made this link:

for IRIX 6.3- it should propagate by tomorrow. I can't be certain that this
will be sufficient but you should know by tomorrow.

Add acro_v3.0; acroread
should work as it did before. Can you run it that way?
