Well, I am quite familiar with the solution
- use e-TeX ! - ; but what I don't know is if MikTeX
doesn't provide e-TeX by default for already quite a long time.
When I call LaTeX via my  MiKTeX installation, I get

This is pdfTeX, Version 3.1415926-1.40.9 (MiKTeX 2.7) (preloaded
format=latex 2009.12.22)  21 JAN 2010 14:16
entering extended mode

Does the "entering extended mode" mean that e-TeX is being used ?
I presume that that IS the case; but I'd be grateful for a quick 
verification by someone.
