---------End of bug.log---------
There is a solution for the problem. New russianb.ldf file can be downloaded
from its developer at ftp://ftp.vsu.ru/pub/tex/hotfixes/babel/russianb.ldf
After replacing /usr/share/texmf/tex/generic/babel/russianb.ldf for a new one
and rebuilding format files above example (bug.tex) compiles correctly.
