Paper size

Having updated to TL 2021 I noticed that the PDF files generated by TeX 
are not always in the A4 format even though `tlmgr paper' reports that 
A4 is set.

A minimal example is:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\begin{document}
Hello world!
\end{document}

The PDF viewer reports "US-Letter (216 × 279 mm)" as paper size of the 
output (equally for pdflatex, xelatex, and lualatex). The log file for 
xelatex is attached.
However, if I uncomment the \usepackage command, I get A4 output.
