% The standard LaTeX definition of \sloppy sets \tolerance to 10000.
% This gives spacing that is too stretchable, with the result that
% wide white spaces appear in order to give right- justified output.
% We reset the tolerance to a more reasonable value.  We also allow a
% little \emergencystretch (a TeX 3.0 feature) to allow individual
% lines to be slightly longer; if that name is unknown, the code
% avoids its use, so as to work with earlier versions of TeX.

% TeXbook, p. 308:
\def\ifundefined#1{\expandafter\ifx\csname#1\endcsname\relax}

% Original version from latex.tex:
% \def\sloppy{\tolerance 10000 \hfuzz .5\p@ \vfuzz .5\p@}

    % \emergencystretch is a new feature of TeX 3.0; use it only if known
