I am stuck in the installation process of TeX 3.14 under AIX 3.2 on
the "make formats" step.

[straylight] /source/tex_src/TeX3.14>make formats
       cd tex; TEXPOOL=.; export TEXPOOL; make formats="tex.fmt latex.fmt slite
x.fmt" fmts
       ./initex plain \\dump
This is TeX, C Version 3.14t3 (INITEX)
(/usr/local/lib/tex/inputs/plain.tex
! Undefined control sequence.
l.6 \catcode
            `\{=1 % left brace is begin-group character
?

Does anyone know what the problem could be here???  I'm new to TeX, but
I was under the impression that initex knew all the TeX primitives.
