I had this problem once, I remember submitting a PR claiming teTeX didn't
compile.  (Actually, I think at the time maybe it *didn't* compile. :-) 
I never figured out my problem, but at one point for other reasons I
completely reinstalled my system from scratch -- reformatted the hard
drives, all that.  After that, teTeX worked???  I never figured out what
the deal was, but apparently I had cleared out some cruft in my tree that
wasn't being cleaned up with a "make world".  No idea what it was.
