you should rebuild luatex for this, but even after that, you're right, there's a problem, i'll investigate later

Thx for confirming, so long I will stay on minimal context as a backend solution :) for others running in that problem use http://wiki.contextgarden.net/ConTeXt_Standalone#Single_user_installation that steps for a working ConTeXt installation until TeXlive's get fixed

[Comment 3 Alexis Ballier 2012-07-31 13:35:36 UTC]

should be fixed in -r1, thanks!

[Comment 4 Martin Scholz 2012-08-02 00:39:40 UTC]

fixed for me, thx for fast work :)
