It's a line in /etc/texmf/texmf.d/95NonPath.cnf which reads:

parse_first_line = f

Changing this to:

parse_first_line = t

will make things work again.

Atsuhito, I wonder whether we should add the lines:

parse_first_line=t
export parse_first_line

to the beginning of /usr/bin/makempx to prevent this going wrong for
other people, and also suggest this to Thomas?
