In particular, the "\picture" macro from "picture.tex" refers to macro "\pictur@" which used to be defined in "autopict.sty" but is not anymore.

The source of plain/graphics is supposed to be compiled using the ltpictur.dtx (from Latex kernel source),
in the version of 2014. The package got broken upstream when rebuilt in 2016, because the source has evoled in an incompatible way. autopict.sty can be regenerated using the 2014 version (https://www.tug.org/svn/texlive/trunk/Master/texmf-dist/source/latex/base/ltpictur.dtx?revision=35512)
