No -- in some cases there are real conflicts, but in this case, you might
get away with just pasting lines 598--632 from plain.tex, bracketed with
\makeatletter and \makeatother (which will also be needed around your

\documentclass{minimal}
\makeatletter
\newif\ifus@ [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[...]

\makeatother
\begin{document}
\input tufte
\makeatletter
$$\vbox{\settabs 3\columns

\+of displayed&three-column&format.\cr}$$
\makeatother
\end{document}
