I had this error show up, too, and discovered that bsub was checking for stdin to be a pipe, even though I wasn't trying to pipe anything in to bsub it still checked. So redirecting bsub's stdin from /dev/null worked.
bsub -pack packfile </dev/null

Quick guess is you may be trying to redirect a job file to bsub while -pack is used? Could you show your bsub command line?
