but  a file like etexdefs.lib makes no sense to plain TeX. so it
should not be possible for it to find it. my texmf.cnf says

 TEXINPUTS.etex=$TEXMF/etex//;$TEXMF/tex//

so that if a file isnt found in etex, its found in tex.

i really dont think any file should like under $TEXMF/tex which cannot
be processed with `original' TeX
