Read the LaTeX manual: bibtex <file name>.tex.

I don't have a .tex file. That is why I am using TeXmacs.

But fine. I'll export a latex file from TeXmacs.

$ bibtex Multiplate-ICFP.tex
I couldn't open file name `Multiplate-ICFP.tex.aux'

So fine. I'l compile this file using LaTeX. (I don't even know why I bother using TeXmacs if I have to do this.)

Now I do

$ bibtex Multiplate-ICFP.tex
I couldn't open file name `Multiplate-ICFP.tex.aux'

Still doesn't work. But since running pdflatex I now have an aux file:

$ bibtex Multiplate-ICFP
This is BibTeX, Version 0.99c (TeX Live 2009)
The top-level auxiliary file: Multiplate-ICFP.aux
I found no \bibdata command---while reading file Multiplate-ICFP.aux
I found no \bibstyle command---while reading file Multiplate-ICFP.aux
(There were 2 error messages)

Anyhow, this is all a red herring. TeXmacs hasn't used bibtex since 1.0.7.5. And if there was something wrong with my .bib file, it wouldn't explain why it works fine in 1.0.7.9. I've tried using a trimmed down trivial .bib file with one simple entry, and it doesn't work in 1.0.7.10, but does work in 1.0.7.9.

$ cat Multiplate.bib
@misc{visscher:2010,
author = {Sjoerd Visscher},
title = {Using {M}ultiplate with a plate containing a field for each
constructor},
year = {2010},
}
