It would be great if you could take care upstream that texlive is made
compatible with the new urw-base35 fonts release.

I'd say "no", but I am sure that a huge glaring bug will occur the
second after the package is uploaded. :)

By this you mean that changing the /FontName fields *back* to the values
of the old gsfonts package is a bad idea? Alright, then we just keep the
font files untouched.
