? The control sequence at the end of the top line
of your error message was never \def'ed. If you have
misspelled it (e.g., `\hobx'), type `I' and the correct
spelling (e.g., `I\hbox'). Otherwise just continue,
and I'll forget about whatever was undefined.
? OK, entering \batchmode

"tex" is the plain original DEK tex, which does not support the
necessary extensions.
The solution is to use "etex" which contains the necessary e-TeX
extensions.
Closing this bug.
