Okay, I've checked in a fixed wording now.  However, there's also a
different approach to fix this:

,---- tetex-bin/changelog_3.0-17
|   * Add support for nonexitant TEXMFVAR to texk/kpathsea/mktexnam 
|     (approved upstream). First step for a new font caching. [ralf]
`----

This means that we can apply the patch to tex-common, and tetex-bin will
continue to work.  texlive does not yet have it, and unfortunately I
don't know how to recreate the texlive source packages from the svn
repository.  But we could just apply a patch to the downloaded source
package, or maybe I can try it out and it isn't so hard...

Regards, Frank
