Bug#458059: [Taco Hoekwater] Re: [NTG-pdftex] Bug#458059:



Even if makebm is an internal macro, renaming the in-document
definition to, say, \differentname doesn't change a thing. I still get
the same grouping level error, with:

\differentname #1$->\bm {#1}
                            $
\bm@mchoice ... {\hbox {#1$\displaystyle \m@th #2$
                                                  }}{\hbox {#1$\textstyle \m...

\bm@gr@@p ...fmmode \bm@mchoice #1{#2}{#2}{#2}{#2}
                                                  \else \bfseries #1#2\fi
\bm@command ...ound \z@ {\bm@gr@@p \boldmath {{a}}
                                                  }
\differentname #1$->\bm {#1}
                            $
