I have a problem with that. If something goes wrong, empty files might
remain.

What I can offer is to check the existence of the output files on
startup and not to run texhash in the end. So, for the usual case of
a non-initial run of updmap, the user puts his flies into place, then
runs texhash und updmap. Since updmap detects that it does not add
files to any texmf tree, it won't call texhash again.
