After lot of fiddling around, here are the config settings that work for me on
mac osx.

external_content_handlers =
    {
        application: {
            pdf: "/usr/bin/open"
        }
    };
content_handlers.set("application/pdf", content_handler_open);
delete_temporary_files_for_command=false;

Once you have added this to your .conkerorrc, whenever you click on a pdf file
conkeror will be able to open it using your system's default pdf viewer.

delete_temporary_files_for_command=false makes sure that conkeror does not
deletes the downloaded file once the "open" command returns back.  Without it,
the pdf viewer will not find the downloaded pdf file.
