Has anyone tried compiling TeX on a Sequent S82 running Dynix 3.0.17.  I 
am using the makefile within tex82 which works fine our Sun3 and Sun4 
machines.  After compiling, I run initex per instructions and this is what 
happens:

initex plain '\dump'
This is TeX, C Version 2.95 (INITEX)
(/usr/local/lib/tex/inputs/plain.tex Preloading the plain format: codes,
registers,
! Missing number, treated as zero.

                   \relax
<to be read again>
                   \else
\ch@ck #1#2#3->\ifnum \count 1#1<#2\else
                                         \errmessage {No room for a new 
#3}\fi

\alloc@ ...\ch@ck #1#4#2\allocationnumber =\count
                                                  1#1\global

l.245 \newdimen\maxdimen
                         \maxdimen=16383.99999pt % the largest legal 
<dimen>
?

Likewise initex fails when creating a fmt file for LaTeX.
