Well, it's probably not quite that fatal for our project, because it
looks like the \definedescription mechanism can be used to replace \tab,
and does not suffer from the same problem in the beta.
Nevertheless I thought someone would like to know that \tab has stopped
working, so it can be fixed (or documented as obsolete, in favor of
\definedescription).
