Sorry about this, but I didn't see the following note in the most recent
version of latex.tex (which we're using):
% \begin, \end, and \@checkend changed so \end{document} will catch
% an unmatched \begin. Changed 24 May 89 as suggested by
% Frank Mittelbach and Rainer Sch\"opf.
Equals: you're running a very old version of LaTeX! Make your local
TeX responsible install a newer!
A new version of LaTeX would have behaved as I said...
