Wait for an updated TeX Live or teTeX-beta. Unless you know what you
are doing, you should not run autoconf.

- compare the sizes of the format files
- compare the debug output from running latex with KPATHSEA_DEBUG=-1
  (could be that some searching goes mad)

I have no idea about that and suggest that you write a bug report:
  "Email bug reports to tex-k@mail.tug.org."

updmap has a config file where things can be set up. You can read this
configuration file, the screen output of the program (check for any
"map file not found" message) and the output files. Please look up
these details.

If you use TeX Live, no formats will be build when tunning a "make
install". That's different in teTeX-beta.

As I have written earlier, this is completely irrelevant for you.
