I am trying to get TeX3.14 running on an RS6000, running AIX 3.2 and I
cannot seem to get a working version.  All of the binaries compile
normally, but when it comes time to make the tex, latex, etc. images,
the build dies on the initialization file with an error like the
following.  I've tried to different versions of the TeX3.14 sources
and am getting essentially the same problem.

# make formats
        cd tex; TEXPOOL=.; export TEXPOOL; make formats="tex.fmt latex.fmt etex.fmt" formats
        ./initex plain.initex
This is TeX, C Version 3.141 (INITEX)
(plain.initex
! Undefined control sequence.
l.1 \input
           plain
? 

I'm new to the AIX world (we're mainly a Sun shop), so I'd appreciate
any advice you have for fixing this problem.
