Hi,

[I'm not subscribed to the list, so I would appreciate it if people
could keep me in the CC.]

Recent versions of ConTeXt seem to have developed a problem with TABLE,
where aligncharacter=yes and width=broad won't work together. This
document demonstrates:

    \starttext
        \bTABLE[width=\textwidth]
            \setupTABLE[c][1][width=broad]
            \setupTABLE[c][2][width=fit]
            \setupTABLE[c][3][width=fit,aligncharacter=yes]

            \bTR\bTD xxx \eTD\bTD 10 hrs @ 30 \eTD\bTD 300.00 \eTD\eTR
            \bTR\bTD[nc=2]\eTD\bTD 300.00 \eTD\eTR
            %\bTR\bTD\eTD\bTD\eTD\bTD 300.00 \eTD\eTR

        \eTABLE
    \stoptext

Like that, with a row with [nc=2], the first two columns are typeset
directly on top of each other. If that line is replaced with the
commented line underneath it, the overlap goes away, but the table is
much wider than it should be and runs off the edge of the page. In both
cases, the problem can be removed either by removing the
[aligncharacter=yes] or by replacing [width=broad] with [width=fit]. 

This is with the TeXLive15 version of context, 2015.05.18 12:26. I have
also reproduced it with live.contextgarden.net, which I think is the
same version. The problem did not occur with the TeXLive14 version,
which was 2014.05.21 22:04.
