Sure.

Okay. :) Well, without any Map nor MixedMap line, I think you can still
produce PDF files using the "base fonts"...
As for other possible checks: we aren't going to check whether the map
files exist---updmap will do that. I don't see much more that we could
or should do.
But yes, we could probably tolerate the absence of 00updmap.cfg... I
said I would consider updmap.cfg broken without the settings contained
in 00updmap.cfg, but it is a bit excessive: from a quick check, it seems
that updmap has defaults for them.
