Hans,

texfont type-tmf.dat --en=texnansi --fontroot /Users/ccr/Library/texmf/

fails with

Can't open perl script "/Users/ccr/bin/texfont.pl": No such file or
directory
             batch line : --en=texnansi --ve=public --co=antt --so=auto

etc.  Now, /Users/ccr/bin/texfont is a symbolic link to texfont.pl in
the installation, so this can't work.  The problem is here:

my $own_path = "$FindBin::Bin/" ;
$FindBin::RealScript =~ m/([^\.]*)(\.pl|\.bat|\.exe|)/io ;

Either use $FindBin::RealBin in the first line or use $FindBin::Script
in the second line.  Mixing the tweo breaks as soon as symbolic links
are involved that change the suffix.

regards,
	Christopher Creutzig
