Thanks, this helps a bit. 'kpsewhich -progname tex cwebmac.tex' says:
/opt/texlive/2016/texmf-dist/tex/plain/cweb/cwebmac.tex

However, this is quite counterintuitive.

If I set a soft-link from '~/.texlive2016/.../cwebmac.tex' next to the
CWEB source, both kpsewhich and tex pick up the 'most local' file. :o)
