Looks like you were bitten by someone else's 8-character-limit-on-filename
machine.  The .tfm name is ``circlew10'', most 8 character filename systems
truncate that to ``circlew1''.  circlew10.tfm is distributed with LaTeX.
You can either edit the appropriate file, or make a copy of circlew10.tfm
as circlew1.tfm.
