Found the problem !
It is
\usepackage{pdfpages}
Even though I do not use this package at all in tex4ht mode,
(it does not work) but by simply just loading, causes this
problem with tex4ht. It seems to redefine things which causes
problem with tex4ht.
So I changed it
\ifdefined\HCode
\else
\usepackage{pdfpages} %MAKE SURE YOU DO NOT USE THIS WITH htlatex
\fi
And now the error went away.
The funny thing I knew about this issue with this
package and tex4ht long time ago, but I forgot about it
earlier today when I added the pdfpages package
in order to use it in non-tex4ht mode.
case closed. Thanks.

Near the end, with make4ht, after this command

I keep getting an error on a file called index.tmp:

-----------------
I removed all temporary files. Tried this on both linux and
cygwin. And still get this error.
Has any one seen such an error before. I am not sure where
to look to debug this more now. THe file index.tmp at the end
looks to be corrupted. It has size of one byte only.
At the end, I see index.idv having zero byte size and index.tmp
having 1 byte size. So something went wrong.
Any idea what to look for or try? I put index.log and
index.tmp files here
https://www.12000.org/tmp/052418/
if someone wants to look at them.
Will keep trying to find what is wrong.
thanks for any hints.
