There's qpdf, at least... it works.  I haven't used it too much, but did open up a couple of pdfs in order to say "yep, can read these on my Z too" (grin).

Look for qpdf2 - I think! It worked better for me than qpdf.  I'm working from memory though so I may have it wrong.
Left Linux and Linux PDAs... sorry, got boring.  Switched to Mac.

honnestly, pdf reading on a zaurus (qpdf,qpdf2,whatever) is not what it should be.

Try acrobat reader on a 250 MHz pocket pc. Read some .pdf. Try the same files on your zaurus :
 - some won't even open
 - some will take *minutes* to move from page to page

IMHO some optimisation is required for qpdf2
