Why why why? lmodern in Debian is at version 1.00 and Taco (or Hans)

the 1.00 version, too.

No. Currently formats are NOT autogenerated in texlive in Debian for
conext, because mktexfmt/fmtutil does NOT support engine specific
subdirs for formats. This will work again with texlive 2007.

Can you send me the file ee03b091.tex so that I can check it (I won't
publish the contents and won't rob you of any publication ;-)
