The ams symbols are made available in fonts chosable by \ma and \mb.
According to the context font selection commands, this means that \max
switches to \ma at a smaller size (try \maxx). (Hans will correct me if I
didn't get it right, I hope).
Until the collision is fixed, you could define the max function under a
different name, e.g.
\def\maxf{\mathop{\rm max}\nolimits}
