This must be a problem on your side; in the attached Makefile it was
correctly written.

Have you tried the CVS repository? I've done exactly that in a recent
commit.

Well, this warning message is harmless, I think.

This would be great! Honestly, I haven't fiddled around with symbol
fonts in detail; basically, I've just quickly refreshed Makefile.urw
which sits on my hard disk since years.

Hmm. There is the line
sed -e '/^FontName /s/Dingbats/Dingbats-Reverse/' \
in the rule to create `uzdrrev.afm' which should do that. Perhaps
this fails due to the typo you reported above.

Yes.

Marvellous!
