I still rely in all my installations on this bit at the bottom to be in

Is there a way to make this patch update-safe?
There are comments
in ./tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkxl/cont-new.mkxl:
%D This file is loaded at runtime, thereby providing an excellent
place for hacks,
%D patches, extensions and new features. There can be local
overloads in cont-loc
%D (which has always been the case) and experimental code in
cont-exp (which is also
%D so old that I need to remind myself to check it occasionally, so
here is the
%D reminder).
I tried the mentioned local overload methods but didn't get them to work.
Did I mess up somehow or is the comment above outdated?
Are there any better ways - update-safe though?
Thanks a lot, Werner

You can put this on cont-new.mkxl as test:
\unprotect
\defcsname\??xtableflushsplit\v!repeat\endcsname
{\doloop
{\clf_x_table_flush
method {\v!split}%
height
\ifdim\pagegoal=\maxdimen\textheight\else\dimexpr\pagegoal-\pagetotal\relax\fi
\relax
\ifcase\c_tabl_x_state
\exitloop
\else
\page
\fi}}
\protect
cont-new will be overwritten so when you put a patch in there you need
to check a next upload if that patch is permanent
you can also put patched in a cont-loc file (make sure that you run
mtxrun --generate after making one) and out that file in your
texmf-local tree (or project tree) as these will not be replaced
you can wrap such a patch in:
\ifcsname\??xtableflushsplit\v!repeat\endcsname \else
\fi
to make sure that it's not overloading something built in
