This is not really a bug. Streams in mkii are an experiment and will not be
developed further (is a module after all). In mkiv there will be a different
mechanism. There is some experimental code ... copied from the source:
\enabletrackers[streams.flushing]
\setuplayout[grid=yes] \showgrid
\starttext
\input tufte
\startoutputstream[nl]
Wat doen we hier?
\enableoutputstream[en]
Are you sleeping, brother John?\footnote{xxx}
\dorecurse{4}{x \footnote{note \recurselevel}\input tufte \par
\pushoutputstream}
\enableoutputstream[de]
Bruder Jakob, schläfst du noch?\footnote{yyy}
\dorecurse{4}{x \footnote{note \recurselevel}\input ward \par \pushoutputstream}
\disableoutputstream
\stopoutputstream
Vader Jacob, slaap je nog?\footnote{zzz}
\input tufte
\synchronizestreams[en,de,nl]
\page \flushoutputstream[en] \input knuth
\page \flushoutputstream[de] \input knuth
\page \flushoutputstream[nl] \input knuth
\stoptext
