when the simplication to 'fmt' was discusses, the idea was that the distinction
would be achieved by using an engine subpath
web2c/xetex/...
web2c/pdfetex/...
web2c/aleph/...
unfortunately tetex does not follow the tds recommendation in this.
however, texexec supports this, either by
texexec --engine
or by an entry in the ini file, e.g.
for tetex set UseEnginePath to true
