I never saw a need that this is fixed. --dvipdfmx works when translating
documents, that is what it is used for.

THe --listing is a different piece, a commodity. One can easily create
the respective .tex input file reading the texexec.rb code and then run
texexec --dvipdfmx to get output via dvipdfmx.
