Can you please explain, why you think that you need reencoding for all
fonts in the bsr set? The idea of reencoding is to help the reader to
find ligatures (if you have a version with the "search" option) and to
help text extraction.

I don't see a benefit for reencoding e.g. cmbsy10. In the map files from
the author of dvipdfm, only the "pure" text fonts have been reencoded
(see cmr.map in the dvipdfm distribution).

I just have fixed a few compatibility problems with updmap and I hope
that the teTeX-2.0 version will be good enough. If you want to test it
now, get it from here:
