Thanks, Mike, understood.
Still:

In the meantime I managed to find an updated version of Adobe's TechNote
"Acrobat product interoperability"
http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=333223&sliceId=2

Having read it several times the situation to me seems clear as mud.

The table shows that the Reader 9 would be *allowed* in combination
with any version of Acrobat > 6.

OTH the document says:
"... Acrobat and Adobe Reader have numerous components
that have similar functionality and can cause conflicts
on a machine. The most prevalent among these conflicts
involves the plug-ins for rendering PDF files in the
browser, PDFMaker inside of Office Applications, and
the Adobe PDF printer ..."

and as examples mentions:
" ... Acrobat 8 with Adobe Reader 9 or
Acrobat 7 with Adobe Reader 8 ..."
