    The location of texmf.cnf seems strange.

Actually, that's the normal place to add local additions/overrides to
the distributed texmf.cnf.  We even recommend it (see the header
comments in the file itself).

    Furthermore you said "added".
    You have to "change" the existing value.

That is certainly true, but the version in 2010/texmf.cnf is intended to
win.

I can't say right now what is actually going on for Pablo.
