Hi Hans,

Thanks for having fixed the behavior of the prime in the latest beta release 
(ConTeXt  version 2017.05.15 21:48).
However, as you may see in the two attached PDF files, the result is still 
incorrect when one types for example $f_2’’(x)$, which should give the same 
result as $f’’_2(x)$.
The correct behaviour is that obtained with mkii. Indeed one can circumvent the 
behaviour of the latest beta release of mkiv by using tricks such as the ones 
in the example code below, but this should be avoided in my opinion.

The following PDF have been obtained with mkii and mkiv with the following 
example code.
Best regards: OK

%%% begin derivatives-prime.tex
\starttext

\startformula
f''_{2}(x) = f_{2}''(x) = f^{''}_{2}(x) = f_{2}^{''}(x) % = f^{{}^{''}}_{2}(x)
\stopformula
As one may see the result of \type{f_{2}''(x) = } $f_{2}''(x)$ is not correct 
in \type{mkiv}. 

The following positions of the superscripts \type{(3)} are correct both in 
\type{mkii} and in \type{mkiv}.
\startformula
f^{(3)}_{2}(x) = f_{2}^{(3)}(x)
\stopformula

\stoptext
%%% end derivatives-prime.tex
