More precisely, I meant : in the "personal" case. The files  
"updmap.cfg" that lie in the texmf.local or texmf.tetex are  
unreadable by the user if he's not "root". Hence the idea to put a  
copy of /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.local/web2c/updmap.cfg in your  
personal setting, ~/Library/texmf/web2c/, before running the "updmap  
--enable Map foo.map" command.
