I've just upgraded to teTeX 3 2005 from teTeX 2.02 / 2003 using 
i-Installer. I'm made all the required changes to my local tree 
and and everything seems to work except metafont on one character 
in the greek font levy (which the ibycus font fibr84 builds). 

Prior to the failure with levy/x.mf the only difference is that 
in 2.02 but not in 3 cp8bit.tcx is loaded. Is this the problem 
if so how do I fix it? 

Any help would be very welcome.

Leaving out identical output in /xxx/

Running under 2.02 I have:

mktexpk: Running mf-nowin -progname=mf \mode:=ljfour; mag:=1+240/600; 
nonstopmode; input fibr84

This is METAFONT, Version 2.71828 (Web2C 7.5.2)

But under 3 metafont gags on levy/x.mf and gives up:
