$ kpsewhich fmtutil.cnf
/opt/tex/texlive/alpha/texmf/web2c/fmtutil.cnf

$ ls -l /opt/tex/texlive/alpha/texmf/web2c/fmtutil.cnf

It seems that it is not old stuff, at least.

I don't think that my test environment is optimal, there are still

There is a general rule:  Problems always appear where you don't
expect them.  Seems to be a law of nature.  See also:
