[texhax] pstricks problem

[Zbigniew Nitecki]

I cannot understand the following problem, unless some style file has  
been corrupted.

Recently, to correct a problem caused by a typo in babel's latin.ldf  
file on TeXlive, I replaced that file with an updated one from CTAN  
(making no other changes).  Since then, whenever I tex a file whose  
package calls to pstricks are
************************************************************************ 
*********
\usepackage{pstricks, pst-plot,pst-math,pst-3dplot}
%\usepackage{pstcol, %%obsolete?
%\usepackage{pst-char, %%obsolete?
\usepackage{pst-node,pst-text}
\usepackage{pst-grad}
*******************************************************************
I get a string of error messages of the following sort:
*********************************************************************
! Package xkeyval Error: `linewidth=1pt' undefined in families  
`,pst-3d,pst-3dp
lot,pst-grad'.

See the xkeyval package documentation for explanation.
Type  H <return>  for immediate help.
  ...

l.142 ...line[linewidth=1pt, linestyle=dashed]{->}
                                                   (-0.5,0)(5,0)
************************************************************************ 
*
(various standard pstricks parameters get this treatment).
When I go into silent mode and simply ignore the warnings, the  
pictures come out fine.

Now, when I tex another file, whose calls to pstricks are just the  
first \usepackage above,
I get no error messages.

I am using TeXShop, with latex+ghostscript, using the latest  
distributions from TeXShop, which I believe are those on TeXLive.

Any ideas about what to do?
