Maybe your input file (main.tex) contains \pdfoutput=1. Or your format  
files (latex.fmt and the like) were compiled in pdftex mode for some  
reason.

You may otherwise have a shell config file defining pdftex to take  
implicitly the option --output-format pdf, or setting some similar  
environment variable (though I couldn't find any related variable in  
texmf.cnf).
