That's why i bothered downloading it.  In the meantime i have finally
dist-upgraded to potato but this didn't help very much because
FrameMaker dies upon startup without any further complaints.  Starting
it directly without the wrapper:

Just too bad Adobe doesn't bother to support this version.  Makes me
almost feel bad to not having sent in a detailed bugreport before
deleting FrameMaker from my HD. ;-)
