[XeTeX] Problem with ifpdf switch

Hello

On acquiring a new PC I decided to install the latest TeXLive (previously I
was on the 2013 version).  I use plain XeTeX.  To my surprise, the first
page now has at the top the text:

ifpdf [2016/04/04 v3.0 Provides the ifpdf switch]

See the attached one-page PDF.

Below I give some lines from my log file - it's the last line that is of
interest, viz.:

[]\tenrm ifpdf [2016/04/04 v3.0 Pro-vides the if-pdf switch

Where has that come from, and, more importantly, how do I get rid of it in
the output?
