Should be fixed.

Also, your example should have
\usebtxdefintions[apa]
rather than
\loadbtxdefinitionfile[apa]

The most recent update (ConTeXt  ver: 2017.10.29 15:44 MKIV beta  fmt: 
2017.10.30  int: english/english) has broken \cite processing. I now get 
the author name (poorly formatted) instead of the translator, and 
 instead of the title, with the example document.


If this is not the result of some misconfiguration or misuse of the 
macros on my part, can this part of the update be rolled back?

[NTG-context] Two requests for new btx subsystem

Two improvement requests for the new bibliography subsystem:
