Can you please check if adding
  OLDCPPFLAGS=$CPPFLAGS
  ...
  CPPFLAGS="$CPPFLAGS $EXTRA_LIBT1_INCLUDE"
  ...
  CPPFLAGS=$OLDCPPFLAGS
(always near the corresponding CPP manipulation) in configure,
libs/configure, texk/xdvik/configure and texk/dvipng/configure
is sufficient to fix this?

I'll have a look, thanks.

Sure, but pdftex currently does not support the new version. The
developers are aware of this, however.

Thanks,
