[pdftex] Problem with pdflatex.efmt (LaTeX 2003/12)

[Daniel Flipo]

Hi all,

I have installed the latest version of LaTeX (dated dec. 2003) on
a TL2003 distribution (linux), rebuilt my formats and... 
got a bad surprise when recompiling files showing a metapost graph.

I append the following test files
-- test.tex       which includes test.1
-- test.mp        metapost source for test.1
-- test.pdf       ugly result with new LaTeX

The compilation of test.tex with pdflatex runs smoothly, but 
xpdf complains:
Error (609): Too few (0) args to 'c' operator
Error (628): Unknown operator '\@@MP44'
Error (628): Unknown operator '\@@MP45'
Error (628): Unknown operator '\@@MP46'
Error (628): Too few (0) args to 'c' operator
Error (628): Unknown operator '\@@MP55'
Error (628): Unknown operator '\@@MP56'
Error (631): Too few (0) args to 'c' operator
Error (650): Unknown operator '\@@MP44'
Error (650): Unknown operator '\@@MP45'
Error (650): Unknown operator '\@@MP46'
Error (650): Too few (0) args to 'c' operator
Error (650): Unknown operator '\@@MP55'
Error (650): Unknown operator '\@@MP56'
Error (652): Too few (0) args to 'c' operator

I get a correct result when running the same test file
on another machine with the same TL2003 distribution
but with LaTeX not upgraded. I append the result test-OK.pdf for
comparison.

None of the inputed files (graphicx, pdftex.def supp-mis.tex
supp-pdf.tex etc.) have changed in the new LaTeX distribution,
I have checked this carefully using 'diff'.

Compiling test.tex in LaTeX instead of pdfLaTeX provides a
correct .dvi file on both machines, so I guess there is 
something wrong with my pdflatex format... Did I miss something?

Thanks in advance for any help.
