Hi

> Processing a document that uses chess.sty fails, for example

Well, chess.sty is from 1992 or so 

I recommend chessboard (or skak).

Also, according to our policy, I am closing this report since it is a
problem of up-upstream (not TeX Live itself). If you want it fixed in
the original package, please don't contact TeX Live but the original
author of chess.sty.

Best

Norbert
