I wrote a LaTeX document with the "letter" style in which I did a few
environments defined by \newtheorem.  In some of those I put \labels
and then tried to refer to them with \ref.  Now I just got undefined
reference warnings when compiling the document.  I played around a bit
and just changing the document style to "report" (and removing the
\heading and \closing stuff etc.) was sufficient for me to get my
references OK.  

I looked in latex.tex and it seems it defines default values for
theorem numbering and does a \refstepcounter as it should and couldn't
find anywhere in letter.sty where this is shut off - it does
*something* with jobname.aux, so it doesn't just ignore the file.

Anyone know what's going on?
