Hi!
I've experienced the following problem with the
latex/amslatex distribution:

If I use a different ulasy.fd file (for the sauter fonts), the
amslatex crashes at least with the multline* environment:

The problem happens when the NEW ulasy.fd file is loaded
after the amsmath-package.

But if I load the ulasy.fd at format time or I use the
ulasy.fd from the distribution, everything is ok.

Where is the problem?

Following is the new ulasy.fd, a testfile, and the log from
the run. I use also the latest amslatex dist. from CTAN.

I use a different ulasy.fd file:
%%
%% This *was* file `Ulasy.fd',
%%
\ProvidesFile{ulasy.fd}
             [1996/11/20 v2.2d

  }{}%
}
\DeclareFontFamily{U}{lasy}{}
\sauter@family{U}{lasy}{lasy}{m}{n}

\endinput
