 and changing this to:
parse_first_line = t
 would make things work again.

Sure, but I suggest to give the user a real TeX by default. If he
wants to change this default, that's his decision...

 Further, he advised to add to the beginning of /usr/bin/makempx 
parse_first_line=t
export parse_first_line
 to prevent this going wrong for other people.

A better fix was suggested by Olaf Weber:
