I'm having a slight problem with generating the formats when I use newtexexec.
texmfstart newtexexec --make --all
I get the expected output without any errors, e.g.:

But cont-en.fmt is never actually written to the disk. I searched high and low, but the only cont-en.fmt is the "old" one, written on Apr. 17; the same for cont-en.log. Generating the formats with texexec --make --all works. Is there anything I'm missing?
Don't you get a report saying something like: TeXExec | tex engine path: c:/data/develop/tex/texmf-mswin/web2c/pdfetex TeXExec | mps engine path: c:/data/develop/tex/texmf-mswin/web2c TeXExec | texformat: 18/04/2006 23:38:03 > c:/data/develop/tex/texmf-mswin/web2c/pdfetex/cont-cz.fmt TeXExec | texformat: 18/04/2006 23:37:38 > c:/data/develop/tex/texmf-mswin/web2c/pdfetex/cont-de.fmt TeXExec | texformat: 20/04/2006 10:52:56 > c:/data/develop/tex/texmf-mswin/web2c/pdfetex/cont-en.fmt TeXExec | texformat: 18/04/2006 23:37:51 > c:/data/develop/tex/texmf-mswin/web2c/pdfetex/cont-fr.fmt TeXExec | texformat: 18/04/2006 23:38:30 > c:/data/develop/tex/texmf-mswin/web2c/pdfetex/cont-it.fmt TeXExec | texformat: 20/04/2006 10:53:08 > c:/data/develop/tex/texmf-mswin/web2c/pdfetex/cont-nl.fmt TeXExec | texformat: 18/04/2006 23:38:16 > c:/data/develop/tex/texmf-mswin/web2c/pdfetex/cont-ro.fmt TeXExec | texformat: 09/06/2005 02:41:25 > c:/data/develop/tex/texmf-mswin/web2c/pdfetex/latex.fmt TeXExec | texformat: 20/04/2006 10:53:09 > c:/data/develop/tex/texmf-mswin/web2c/pdfetex/mptopdf.fmt TeXExec | texformat: 09/06/2005 02:16:52 > c:/data/develop/tex/texmf-mswin/web2c/pdfetex/plain.fmt TeXExec | mpsformat: 20/04/2006 10:53:11 > c:/data/develop/tex/texmf-mswin/web2c/metafun.mem TeXExec | mpsformat: 09/06/2005 02:16:54 > c:/data/develop/tex/texmf-mswin/web2c/plain.mem TeXExec | runtime: 28.911 remove old instances in the web2c path!
