Howdy,

I'm not at all sure the package files would work with LaTeX 2.09. Why  
are you mixing the two? If it is an old document shouldn't it be  
compiled without the additions?

You might try

\documentstyle[package1,package2,...]{article}

but I'm not sure; I was using TeX with a custom format before LaTeX2e  
came out.

Good Luck,
