Jurabib doesn't seem to find BibTeX references

Hey everybody,

I'm sure I'm missing something completely obvious, but I've been
fiddling with jurabib for over an hour and haven't been able to get it
to recognize any of my references as anything other than 'undefined.'
Here's a sample BibTeX database (named bar.bib in my working
directory):

@Article(test,
  title = {A sentence that uses all characters of the {English} alphabet},
  journal = {Journal of Linguistic Pedantry},
  author = {G.I.M. Lame},
  volume = 1,
  number = 1,
  year = 1969
)

----
And here's a sample LaTeX file (named `foo' in my working directory):

\documentclass[]{article}
\usepackage{jurabib}

\begin{document}
\title{Title}
\author{Scholar}

The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.\cite{test}

\bibliography{bar}
%\bibliographystyle{plain}
\bibliographystyle{apalike}

\end{document}

----
After the command sequence "latex foo; bibtex foo; latex foo; latex
foo" I still get the warnings

LaTeX Warning: Citation `test' on page 1 undefined on input line 8.

(./foo.bbl

LaTeX Warning: Empty `thebibliography' environment on input line 8.

) [1] (./foo.aux)

LaTeX Warning: There were undefined references.

Running "latex foo" again and again (after the "bibtex foo",
naturally) doesn't change
this behavior--- LaTeX never finds the references and never puts
anything in the bibliography.  Adding a "\nocite*" does add the
reference to the bibliography, but
doesn't resolve the citation (i.e,, I still get "[??]" in the output).
 If I comment out
the line "\usepackage{jurabib}" line everything works perfectly.

If I leave "\usepackage{jurabib}" in but switch the bibliography style
from "apalike" to "plain," I get even weirder behavior.  Now the first
"latex foo" produces the errors

LaTeX Warning: Citation `test' on page 1 undefined on input line 8.

(./foo.bbl
! Undefined control sequence.
<argument> \@listctr

l.3 \bibitem{test}

?
! You can't use `\relax' after \the.
<recently read> \c@

l.3 \bibitem{test}

?
) [1] (./foo.aux)

and any subsequent "latex foo" commands produces errors of the form

! Argument of \jb@fifthofseven has an extra }.
<inserted text>
                \par
l.8 ...own fox jumps over the lazy dog.\cite{test}

?
Runaway argument?
! Paragraph ended before \jb@fifthofseven was complete.
<to be read again>
                   \par
l.8 ...own fox jumps over the lazy dog.\cite{test}

?
! Argument of \jb@thirdofseven has an extra }.
<inserted text>
                \par
l.8 ...own fox jumps over the lazy dog.\cite{test}

?
Runaway argument?
! Paragraph ended before \jb@thirdofseven was complete.
<to be read again>
                   \par
l.8 ...own fox jumps over the lazy dog.\cite{test}

?
! Argument of \jb@fourthofseven has an extra }.
<inserted text>
                \par
l.8 ...own fox jumps over the lazy dog.\cite{test}

This continues for quite a while, with "thirdofnine", etc.  After
trying this, I have to manually delete foo.aux and foo.bbl before I
can reprocess the document with another bibliography style.

I'm using "pdfeTeX, Version 3.141592-1.21a-2.2 (Web2C 7.5.4)" from the
package that comes with Slackware 10.2, and jurabib 0.61 Beta 2.  I
found older versions of jurabib (0.50 and 0.60) and had similar
problems with them, with slightly different error messages.  I'm
probably missing something embarrassingly stupid, but I've read
through the jurabib documentation and don't see any indication of
other things I need to do to use the package.  If someone could at
least do an idiot check to see whether those foo and bar.bib files
process properly in their LaTeX installations, I'd appreciate it.

Thanks for your help,
Brent
