Package: tetex-extra
Version: 3.0-20
Severity: normal
Unfortunately, it seems that something is weird with both ams{art,book},
when I try to load babel (for writing things in Brazilian Portuguese):
the headers of pages citing the name of the article are prefixed with
whatever I put into square brackets, right before {babel}, when I use a
\usepackage command.
This is a quite surprising "effect" and I have seen it for some time now
(say, four months?).
I would like to use these styles for things that I have here, but, more
than anything I would like to understand what is happening. Any help is
quite welcome.
Included are a minimal file that displays the problem, a screen shot of
what I see, and a run of latex with the \listfiles command.
Thanks in advance, Rogério Brito.
