Hi Mark,
this is what it happens when you start a makeup page with a \chapter
command. \chapter inserts a page break before the heading.

As far as I know, this isn’t a bug.
You can disable the page break before chapter with:
\setuphead[chapter][page=]
This way it works as you intend.

I wonder whether this makes sense at all.
Why do you want or why do you think you need the table of contents
wrapped in a makeup page?
A makeup page is fine for contents such as title pages, colophons or
similar ones. Their contents should fit in a single page, because the
contents won’t be split across pages.
Here you have a sample that shows why makeup pages shouldn’t be used for
table of contents:
\starttext
\startmakeup[standard][top=,]
\chapter{Contents}
\dorecurse{50}{\section{testsection}}
\stopmakeup
\stoptext
I hope it helps,
Pablo
