I recently installed the latest version of texlive (updated the spells
to 20110705 for texlive and texlive-texmf) and I'm missing /bin/latex
as well. Everything else seems fine but I'm far from knowledgeable
about latex. I really only use pdftex.

I also did an install using texlive's installer (same version, but a
minimal install). It seems to symlink latex to pdftex.
