I meant that \documentclass is the first thing in the document _normally_,
so reinitializing something that, AFAICT should be initialized and not

To be clear, I did put \newcount\errorcontextlines before
\documentclass{sigplanconf} in my test, and it broke in the same way, with
"Ghostscript filter: No bounding box".
