[problem with tabularx]

I posted a quick fix a while ago, but you may prefer to modify the
code, as follows.

1) add {\ifnum0=`} to the start of \tabularx, so that it looks like:

% \begin{macro}{\tabularx}
% Save the first two arguments in registers, and  clear the
% token register "\toks@". Then call "\TX@get@body" to begin
% saving the body of the table.
%    \begin{macrocode}
\def\tabularx#1#2{{\ifnum0=`}\fi



2) Add \ifnum0=`{\fi} to the end of \TX@endtabularx, so that it looks
   like: 

% Now finish off the {\tt tabularx} environment. Note that we need
% "\end{tabularx}" here as the "\end{tabularx}" in the user's
% file is never expanded.
%    \begin{macrocode}
  \ifnum0=`{\fi}\end{tabularx}}
%    \end{macrocode}
% \end{macro}

The special {\ifnum0=`} style braces are more or less explained on
page 385 of the TeX book.

I am only posting this to c.t.t to save anybody else thinking about
this, if you have further problems please email me.

If you do modify your local copy of tabularx, please modify the header
at the top of the file.

If I still think this fix is correct in a day or so, I will get the
files on the various archives changed. (archive maintainers: please do
not apply this patch yet!)
