We have two systems installed in summer 1995, one with NTeX, the other
(later) with teTeX. The first got the NTeX distribution from April (it was 
installed Apr 11 1995), and this one is definitely corrupted (I just tested). 
The other system got the teTeX 0.3.3 distribution on Feb 13 1996, and this
distribution is ok.

Hope this helps locating the source of corruption.
