i wrote, concerning problems with the bluesky type 1 fonts,
    (a ridiculous consequence of this is that *i*'m not able to typeset
    the metapost logo, so at the moment i'm incapable of actually
    producing tugboat here if it requires some of these fonts.)

and thomas esser, quite reasonably asked
    Why not just remove the broken .pfb files and replace them by Taco's?
    teTeX for example does only distribute Taco's logo fonts, not the other
    pfb's. And I don't see why map files are affected at all. Taco's fonts
    require exactly the same map file entries as the broken ones.

while we could presumably do that for in-house production, as far
as the distribution is concerned, that's covered by a contract,
so our hands are tied.  we're working on it ...
