I doubt this is the right solution.  TEXMFLOCAL should be part of
TEXMF and therefore the above changes shouldn't be necessary.  In my
texmf.cnf TEXMF is defined as
TEXMF = {$TEXMFCONFIG,$TEXMFVAR,$TEXMFHOME,$TEXMFSYSCONFIG,!!$TEXMFSYSVAR,!!$TEX
MFLOCAL,!!$TEXMFMAIN,!!$TEXMFDIST}

Is this similar in your case?  In particular, is $TEXMFLOCAL
contained?  Does
kpsexpand \$TEXMF
list all relevant directories?
