Since bsd.port.mk 1.505, USE_LINUX adds a dependency on a particular
linux_base port and setting it to "yes" selects the Red Hat 8 one.  It
isn't necessary here because acroread depends upon other Linux ports.

AFAIC only the linux_base ports do that, not all Linux ports.  I haven't
heard of any problems from this arrangement, and as Joerg said, if the
Linux ABI is disabled after linux_base is installed, the user must have
disabled it.
