i already (tried) to solve this, this is a temp hack to keep acro 5 happy 
(esp when one optimizes files), i'm awaiting a pdftex extension with access 
to page-object-numbers (i'm discussing this with thanh).

you can influence the appearance of jumps to the current page with the 
"samepage" key and unknown destinations with the "unknownreference" key.

btw, the following code should be in spec-fdf.tex

\def\doPDFstartgotorealpage#1#2#3#4#5% watch the R append trick
   {\bgroup
    \doifelsenothing{#3}
      {\scratchcounter=0#5\relax
       \ifnum\scratchcounter>0
         \advance\scratchcounter -1 % pdf starts numbering at zero
         \doifelsenothing{#4}
           {\let\PDFfile\empty}
           {\doifparentfileelse{#4}
              {\let\PDFfile\empty}
              {\setreferencefilename#4.\locationfilesuffix\to\PDFfile
               \edef\PDFfile{R /F (\PDFfile)\PDFgotonewwindow}}}%
         \ifx\PDFfile\empty
           \ifovercomePDFpage % a named page ref
             \edef\PDFdestination{(page:\the\scratchcounter)}%
           \else % beware: optimizers remove this one
             \edef\PDFdestination{[\the\scratchcounter\space\PDFpageviewwrd]}%
           \fi
         \else % across files it's a page number
           \edef\PDFdestination{[\the\scratchcounter\space\PDFpageviewwrd]}%
         \fi
         \edef\action{/S /GoTo\PDFfile\space /D \PDFdestination}%
       \else
         \let\action\empty
       \fi}
      {\doifelsenothing{#4}
         {\let\PDFfile\empty}

       \edef\action{/S /URI /URI (#3\PDFfile)}}%
    \ifx\action\empty\else
