mkluatexfontdb 2.3

I tried again. It doesn't. Only the 2 lines I reported earlier.

Alas, only one version on the machine.

About all I can do at this point is try a full re-install, and see what 
happens. I can install as a user (i.e., install 'just for me'), or as 
admin (i.e, 'install for everyone').

While this doesn't take heroically long, it takes longer than I have 
time for today.

What you/we need is someone else with a MiklTeX install under Windows 7 
(Pro, if that matters), to see if they're having the same problem.
