%%%% Patch file for the LaTeX2e kernel dated 1995/12/01
%%%% (1996/01/11)

\def\fmtversion@topatch{1995/12/01} % This patch will not work with
                                    % any other release.

%%% internal/1723
%%% Not really a bug but Donald Arseneau pointed out that the
%%% new \cline would not flag an error if used incorrectly in the
%%% middle of a line. So add \noalign{} which doesn't do anything but
%%% will generate an error if needed.
\def\cline#1{\noalign{}\@cline#1\@nil}

%%% latex/2024
%%% If \input@path is defined (rather than left undefined, 
%%% as it is by default) then \IfFileExists and related commands
%%% required four # instead of two in constructs like
%%%  \IfFileExists{aaa.cls}{\renewcommand\foo[1]{...##1}}{}
%%% Even with this patch, this bug can affect the loading of .cfg files
%%% during the making of the format, as the patch is read too late. If
%%% \input@path is defined in texsys.cfg you should ensure that any cfg
%%% files read by initex are in the current directory.
