No the diff doesn't help here (I'm on window 7, 64 bit, I will try
on window 8.1. soon).

(It would have confused me very much if he had helped. 
 The diff only replaces 
  \DeclareFontSubstitution{\LastDeclaredEncoding}{cmr}{m}{n}
by 
  \DeclareFontSubstitution{T2A}{cmr}{m}{n}
and I can't imagine why this should change the mktextfm calls).
