Most certainly, but maybe not to ConTeXt :-). I run pdflatex without 
problems so the issue apparently is not within pdftex.

I don't know if pdftex.cfg expects the pdftex.map file to reside in the
$TEXMFMAIN/dvips/config folder, so I created a soft link to the same
directory as pdftex.cfg. Same effect. So, where would pdftex expect the
map file to be? Oh yes, and I ran texhash.
