Actually, I think this should only be a problem when somebody tries to
use the 'levy' greek fonts. I ran into this while using ibycus (based on
the levy fonts), but that was due to a configuration error on my side. I
don't know how often these levy fonts are used today. So maybe it would
be enough to document some workaround (I linked the right x.mf into the
working directory).

Does this other x.mf exist in TeX Live, too? I doesn't seem to be on
CTAN, which does have CTAN:fonts/byzfonts/Alphabet/Smalls/x.mf, though.
