Pete,

Thanks! As usual: your reply is very helpful and complete.

I have disabled and again enabled springer.map. I still get font  
substitutions, and the console complains:

I bought the Springer Minion fonts some long while ago, and had them,  
and the linotype Syntax font, successfully installed in MacTex 2007.  
For the minion font, I have installed the following font files in the  
following subdirectories

In ...fonts/afm/springer/minion:

sminboit.afm	sminregu.afm	smitital.afm	smscregu.afm
sminbold.afm	smitboit.afm	smitregu.afm
sminital.afm	smitbold.afm	smscbold.afm

In ...fonts/tfm/springer/minion:

Do you see anything obviously amiss? Is there any other step you can  
recommend to me?

If I can't trouble shoot my way out of this, I will be tempted to try  
to mimic your set-up with Minion. (I've become unreasonably smitten  
with that font.)
