[texhax] Package "syntonly" and "resizebox"

the most obvious way to fix it is just not use syntaxonly (it really
has no use cases now)
otherwise load syntonly and add \renewcommand\resizebox[2]{\mbox} .

Since syntonly suppresses all fonts the original box has size zero so
to scale it to another size is a divide by zero error.
