Aargh!

Font problems again: after not using ConTeXt for a while, I installed the December 6 package today, generated formats, copied cont-sys.rme and texexec.rme, and so on. Since I recently upgraded my teTeX installation, I also edited pdftex.cfg, adding a bunch of

  map +foo

lines--though I guess that's not strictly necessary, since I have

  \autoloadmapfilestrue

in cont-sys.tex.

All my fonts and typescripts are in the same places they were before, and it seems they are being found; however, pdfetex seems to be unable to use regular TeX fonts (e.g. Computer Modern) because it can't find the map files installed by ConTeXt. There are a number error messages that look like this (representing all the ConTeXt map files, I think):

  Warning: pdfetex (file original-public-vnr.map): \
    cannot open font map file

The files exist and are world-readable, so the above must mean that pdfetex just can't find them.

Now, I did one important thing differently from before: I installed ConTeXt under $TEXMFLOCAL, which on my system is /usr/local/share/texmf. So the map files in question are in

  /usr/local/share/texmf/fonts/map/pdftex/context/

And I *think* my texmf.cnf is set up correctly:

  TEXMFLOCAL = /usr/local/share/texmf

  TEXMF = {$HOMETEXMF,!!$TEXMFLOCAL,!!$TEXMFMAIN}

  TEXFONTMAPS = .;$TEXMF/fontname;$TEXMF/fonts/map//
    % also TEXFONTMAPS.pdftex and TEXFONTMAPS.pdfetex w/ same values

  TEXINPUTS.pdftex   = .;$TEXMF/{pdftex,tex}/{plain,generic,context,}//
  TEXINPUTS.pdfetex   = \
    .;$TEXMF/{pdfetex,pdftex,etex,tex}/{plain,generic,context,}//
  TEXINPUTS.context = \
    .;$TEXMF/{pdftex,etex,tex}/{context,plain,generic,}//

... and so on.

So, anyone have an idea what I might have missed?
