Christopher,
Sorry. My email answering has been sporadic in the past few weeks because
I have been travelling. (I need to check if some of your mail got spam-
filtered, as well!)
The problem is with the changes that went into the ConTeXt distribution.
Since you're running an up-to-date XeTeX, a temporary workaround is
replacing the following:
>\resetspecials
>\defineoutput [xetex] [xtx]
>\setupoutput[xetex]
...with:
\setupoutput[dvipdfmx]
It's not entirely accurate, but XeTeX now supports 85% of the important
dvipdfmx specials, so the next spec-xtx will inherit from dvipdfmx.
best,
adam
