Nath is a very complex module, easily broken. If you can
privately send me your preamble we might be able to find what
was breaking it. Or you can try it yourself: move it up line by
line until delimiters don't work anymore: you'll find what
makes it bomb :)

Not yet. Those multi-equation environments are somewhat more
difficult to convert to ConTeXt. And I still haven't got a
complete grasp on how things work in ConTeXt (esp wrt
numbering), so it's a double effort. It's on my TODO list
though.
