There are indeed 2 map files floating around, which I was completely
unaware of. Unfortunately,  removing the old one does not abolish the
error.

I'll try to provide some information in order to clarify my environment.

Statring from the beginning. If you install texlive using the ports
infrastructure, my sources are downloaded and built and installed.

in /usr/local/share/texmf and /uar/local/share/texmf-dist is a
"scheme-tetex.tpm" tree (created by a python script I have written).
At this stage the ports system has run mktexlsr and fmtutil-sys for
me. They work fine. updmap-sys has NOT yet been run (when I figure
this out it will be done my the ports system).

1 map exists for pdftex:
$ cd /usr/local/share
$ find . -name 'pdftex.map' -print
./texmf/fonts/map/pdftex/updmap/pdftex.map

Here is a really simple tex file:
$ cat test.tex
\documentclass[11pt]{article}
\begin{document}
This is a test.
\end{document}

Does it build now....
$ pdflatex test.tex
This is pdfTeX, Version 3.141592-1.40.3 (Web2C 7.5.6)

Yes. Note which map it is using
(/usr/local/share/texmf/fonts/map/pdftex/updmap/pdftex.map).

So now let us run updmap-sys --syncwithtrees.

# updmap-sys --syncwithtrees

[ Snip...]

texhash: Done.

This is the state that the system was in when I originally posted. See
the first post for the errors.

And now search for pdftex maps:
$ find . -name 'pdftex.map' -print
./texmf/fonts/map/pdftex/updmap/pdftex.map
./texmf-var/fonts/map/pdftex/updmap/pdftex.map

As you suggested, it makes sense to delete the old one. So lets move it away:
# mv /usr/local/share/texmf/fonts/map/pdftex/updmap/pdftex.map /tmp

And try building the test tex file:
$ pdflatex test.tex

[snip lots of similar errors for many fonts..]

pdfTeX warning: pdflatex (file /usr/local/share/texmf-var/fonts/map/pdftex/updm
ap/pdftex.map): ambiguous entry for `labx1440': font file present but not inclu
ded, will be treated as font file not present
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Which is the same problem.

In the only existing map file (in texmf-var) exists the line:
labx1440 cm-super-t2a sfbx1440 -r

In the map that I moved out of the way is the line:
labx1440 SFBX1440 "T2AEncoding ReEncodeFont" <cm-super-t2a.enc <sfbx1440.pfb

Needless to say the lines differ.

Now I am in uncharted territory. I am not familar with the internals of maps.

The error suggests that the font is in duplicate maps? I ran this just
as a test, but it might be irrelevant:

$ grep -r labx1440 *
