Looking into the kpathsea log file I see that mpost indeed uses my
just created mf2pt1.mem file (I don't have a different one in my
system), and I have created mf2pt1.mem with exactly the same texmf.cnf
file as processing the test file -- I'm quite sure that this can't be
the cause for the problem, but maybe I'm wrong...
