There seems to be a typo in anch-pgr.mkII which prevents textbackgrounds from 
working:

line 654 '\enableparposition' should probably read '\enableparpositions'.

If you copy the following lines into your environment it should work:

\def\initializeparbackgrounds
  {\ifcase\totalnofparbackgrounds\else
     \enableparpositions
   \fi}

Thomas

Thanks, Mojca. 

Also, a further bit of investigation on Windows shows that building the example 
(saved in foo.tex) with "context foo.tex" or "texexec --lua foo.tex" produces 
the results I reported. But, building without lua using "texexec foo.tex" gives 
a different error but does produce the expected gray background behind the 
\startC ... \stopC block. Here is the error when building with "texexec 
foo.tex":

! Undefined control sequence.
\initializeparbackgrounds ...e \enableparposition
                                                  \fi
<inserted text> ...page \initializeparbackgrounds
                                                  \loadctxpreplist \checkref...

                                 \ifcase \textlevel \registerfileinfo [begin...
l.36 \starttext

Continuing the run just by hitting enter completes the build with the correct 
background drawn.

        I'll try to make sure what LuaTeX version is used on Windows. At the
        time of synchronisation there was no luatex snapshot yet and it the
        meantime server name has been changed. (Nobody has complained so far,
        so I almost forgot about it.)
