~/Library/texmf/fonts/map/misc or ~/Library/texmf/fonts/map/mine or 
~/Library/texmf/fonts/map/personal (or 
~/Library/texmf/fonts/map/fontinst) are fine places! Just remember that 
all those so-called MAP files we're writing of are nothing more than 
just 'map file fragments!' The real and only MAP files are those that 
pdftex, dvips, or dvipf? are using, those whose path names end in:

	map/dvipdfm/updmap/dvipdfm.map
	map/dvipdfm/updmap/dvipdfm_dl14.map
	map/dvipdfm/updmap/dvipdfm_ndl14.map
	map/dvips/updmap/builtin35.map
	map/dvips/updmap/download35.map
	map/dvips/updmap/ps2pk.map
	map/dvips/updmap/psfonts.map
	map/dvips/updmap/psfonts_pk.map
	map/dvips/updmap/psfonts_t1.map
	map/pdftex/updmap/pdftex.map
	map/pdftex/updmap/pdftex_dl14.map
	map/pdftex/updmap/pdftex_ndl14.map

What updmap (or updmap-sys) does is to concatenate the map file 
fragments as recorded in updmap.cfg files to these final ones. When any 
one of the map file fragments changes on disk updmap (or updmap-sys) 
needs to be invoked to refresh the real MAP files.

No magic, no trickery, not even loops, just simple mechanics: an update 
of your private parts.
