Thanks to Vincent, I figured out what's going on. I had core.autocrlf = true in my git config (github recommended adding it). The thing is, it's only supposed to remove windows CR line endings before stuff gets checked in, but for some reason it was also adding them to certain files when I cloned (on a linux system). Removing the setting in my git config fixed my problem. Cue the windows bashing ... _ For list-related administrative tasks: http://lists.racket-lang.org/listinfo/dev

I didn't want it as a proof -- only as a way to see what would you get
with it. In your case the error is below, and my guess is that it's
mostly useless without the latex file (and even with it it's pretty
bad). Allowing interactions as Robby suggested sounds like a way to
get latex-like behavior, and you could even look at the latex file,
but you'd need to be told where it is and that it will be erased when
the whole thing is done.

Yes, altho I think it would be best to drop into a mode where you are interacting with latex directly when an error is detected (not sure how possible that is).

Ah -- now that you say that I remember how it goes... (It's probably been more than a decade since I ran latex directly, not via some makefile, scribble, emacs, or whatever.) So a crude hack would be for the stdin that is sent to the process to have something like "quit\n".

I do not have an example of different outputs The value is that the latex transcript pauses in the middle so you know where the error message is. You can see what I mean by forcing scribble to call some undefined latex macro.
