In case, in LaTeX, \@ifundefined{pdfoutput} is equivalent to plain  
TeX's \ifx\pdfoutput\undefined (I think it is), then that means the  
following config files will no longer work either:

/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.tetex/tex/latex/graphics/color.cfg /usr/ 
local/teTeX/share/texmf.tetex/tex/latex/graphics/graphics.cfg

and similarly for the files installed with XeTeX (I'm the one to  
blame here, as I suggested their content):

/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.local/tex/xelatex/graphics/color.cfg / 
usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.local/tex/xelatex/graphics/graphics.cfg

(though that won't stop them from detecting whether XeTeX is running).

Using BBEdit to do a multi-file search for \@ifundefined{pdfoutput}  
in /usr/local/teTeX/share on my setup (2005 Devel choice in i- 
Installer), 16 files are returned:

In particular, what seems annoying is the fact that the various .ini  
files used when building the formats seem to contain \ifx\pdfoutput 
\undefined.

Does this mean, given the TeX i-Package contains parts of TeXLive and  
parts of teTeX, that the latest TeXLive isn't compatible with the  
teTeX release used in the i-Package?
