Must admit that that was my thought as well.

Still left pondering whether I (anyone) can do it without recompiling Tex 
from scratch??
The comments thus far did not seem categoric, even though his seems a 
frequent problem (it has a FAQ --- which ?cryptically points --- to the 
?opaque instructions in the texmf.cnf file). 
Not knocking Tex / PdfTex just trying to confirm that what I am trying to do 
is "non-trivial", rather than a solitary lack of ability to understand the 
instructions!!
