I'm having another problem with \placefigure[left] and this time I'm pretty
sure I can't solve it myself.

I'm using ConTeXt ver 2003.7.21 on a TeXlive base with pdfetex
3.14159-1.00b-pretest-20020211-2.1 (Web2C 7.3.7).

The following source overlaps the text on top of the graphic rather than
wrapping it around:

--ConTeXt start--
\setupoutput[pdftex]\setuppapersize[A4][A4]
\useexternalfigure[HWUnodic][hwu-bk-nodic][width=9mm]
\setupfloats[spacebefore=,spaceafter=]
\starttext
\placefigure[left]{none}{\externalfigure[HWUnodic]}
{\bf Do not use a dictionary. You do not need to know the meaning of every
word to do this task.}

\stoptext
--ConTeXt end--

If I remove the {\bf and the closing } then the graphic displays properly.
If I add a \par before the closing } it works properly too. However, since
I'm generating the ConTeXt code from XML, I can't do either of those
work-arounds.

Interestingly, it remains broken even if the \bf isn't there, just the open
and close braces. So presumably this is something to do with the expansion
of what comes after the \placefigure?

Is this a bug?

I have attached the graphic in case people are able to test this for
themselves.

Many thanks,

Duncan
