Maybe this is a good time to mention another font problem related
to the current configuration.

This weekend I was typesetting a document which contained some images
having the  Math1Mono  font embedded.
(This font is from Wolfram Research Inc. --- used in Mathematica graphics.)
There is a   +wolfram.map  entry, by default in  pdftex.cfg .

The problem was that  pdfTeX  wanted to analyse and remake the font
subsetting, but could not find the .tfm file, so tried to call Metafont
to make it --- failing gracefully, but stopping.
(I'm using a new system and haven't fetched and installed the required
resources yet.)

Simply commenting the line in pdftex.cfg fixed this:
  
%map +wolfram.map


In a little while we'll see what's required with Thomas' new setup.

Cheers,

	Ross
