I use this MakeTeXTFM, (this is my updated version for the new
web2c-distribution; Karl, this version works, the old ones you got
from me doesn't work with web2c-6.*, only with web2c-5***)

To get it work with the sauter stuff you have to either include the
sauter part from MakeTeXPK in this script or use my MakeTeXMF script
which I also append to this posting. You have to make sure that TeX
and MF calls the script by defining MAKE_TEX_MF_BY_DEFAULT and
MAKETEX_TFM_BY_DEFAULT in lib/c-auto.h.in in the web2c-distribution.

Share and enjoy!

#   This script file makes a new TeX TFM font, because one wasn't
#   found.  Usage:
#
#   MakeTFM name [mode]
#
#   `name' is the name of the font, such as `cmr10'.
#   `mode', if supplied, is the mode to use.
#
#   Note that this file must execute Metafont, and place the result
#   in the correct location.
#
#   Of course, it needs to be set up for your site.
#
# TEMPDIR needs to be unique for each process because of the possibility
# of simultaneous processes running this script.
