There were two updates to the map files:

The first update (2002/10/14) came in conjunction with new cm-super package.
Later I realized, that the new psfonts.map may cause problems if cm-super
isn't installed.  So I removed the cm-super lines from psfonts.map.  This
was the second update (2002/10/15).

At the moment, you have to modify your config.ps if you want to make use of
cm-super.  This isn't nice.  A future version of MiKTeX will create
psfonts.map during the installation, i.e. if you have cm-super, then the
psfonts.map will be updated automatically.
