Just for completeness...
Today, while upgrading my TeXLive installation, I got
$ tlmgr update --all
... a lot of similar failure ...
`pdftex -ini -jobname=physe -progname=physe physe.ini' failed
`pdftex -ini -jobname=phyzzx -progname=phyzzx physe.ini' failed
`pdftex -ini -jobname=texsis -progname=texsis -translate-file=cp227.tcx
texsis.
ini' failed
`pdftex -ini -jobname=xmltex -progname=xmltex *xmltex.ini' failed
`pdftex -ini -jobname=pdfxmltex -progname=pdfxmltex *pdfxmltex.ini' failed
running fmtutil-sys --byfmt mf ...
done running fmtutil-sys --byfmt mf.
tlmgr: exiting unsuccessfully (status 1).
So I tried, manually:
$ pdftex -ini -jobname=pdfxmltex -progname=pdfxmltex *pdfxmltex.ini
