Are you sure you want to keep your own language.dat? This creates the
problems, I am quite sure.

There may be other deads in the .texmf-var directory. If you do NOT want
to have user adaptions to the system files, please remove (or save to
another place) the two directories
	.texmf-config 
	.texmf-var
in your home dir. Then rerun the configure step and it should work.


Best wishes
