[tex-live] pdftex engine compatibility for formats

Regarding the \ifx\pdfoutput\undefined issue.

To implement what we've discussed at length, I've created a file
texmf-dist/tex/latex/config/pdftex-dvi.ini which disables the relevant
primitives (still leaving them accessible as \normalFOO).

I changed latex.ini to input this file only if pdftex is in fact being
used, as Thomas outlined.  Change #5137.

What I'm wondering now is what other formats need the same treatment.
Below is a list of all the (non-pdf) */config/.ini files.  I guess I'm
responsible myself for Eplain and Texinfo; I don't think the pdftex-dvi
compatibility is needed for either.

Can whoever is responsible for any of the others chime in?  mex and
amstex seem particularly likely to me, but it's not my place ...

Thanks,
k
