That's very good. Regarding my patch, I thought about it and there is one change I would rather revert: The change from calling fmtutil to fmtutil-sys. We have temporarily introduced a backward-compatibility hack, so that fmtutil will continue to work for a while. On the other hand, fmtutil-sys is not available in the teTeX version in testing. I suggest to stay with plain fmtutil, let xmltex (and all other packages that needed fixes for teTeX-3.0) migrate to testing, and then I'll remove tetex-base's dummy bug and let itself go into testing.
