Ok, so it be. Then ptex has to be fixed, but that is not of my doing.

*we*? in fact the best thing would be if we could incorporate the
changes in ptex into pdftex or luatex so that it can go away. The
original company -- afair -- does not develop it anymore, so it is
only a matter of time.
Another option for ptex would be to compile kpathsea statically as
the source code is probably included.

not so much for effect as because he was trying to remember
the sequence of muscle movements.
