How about PDFedit?
http://sourceforge.net/projects/pdfedit
It works straight out of APT on debian 4.

I have tried pdfedit few times and I found that it is very slow or simply freezes.
Do you ave that problem too?
alternative, flpsed , not as fancy as pdfedit but works most of the time.
also, there appears to be LaTeX packages that allow commenting but it would be cumbersome to use.
