Yes, we are having the two faces same problem, I guess.
The fact is that \booktitle in the crossref'ed publication should be processed
as a \title item in the citatation crossreff'd. The error in my case boils down
to the fact that the title-entry is called without being actually present.
With the missing \title sofar I have nailed it down to macro \bibgetvart#1 from
the following bbl entry:
\startpublication[k=campbell:92,t=inproceedings,
a={{Campbell},{Wiener}},y=1992,
.. (no \title)
\stoppublication
and log printing in the log from the modified macro:
\def\bibgetvart#1{\writestatus{ERROR}{Parameter<#1> on bibgetvart
\expandafter\string\csname pbd:#1\endcsname}\csname pbd:#1\endcsname\plussix}%
I find the log:
ERROR> Parameter<campbell:92> on bibgetvart \pbd:campbell:92
ERROR> Parameter<> on bibgetvart \pbd:
! Missing \endcsname inserted.
Thus the missing \title thus seems to result in extra call to a bibliography
entry that does not exist.
This is about as far as I am at the moment in analyzing the problem.

Hi,
I think this is related to my message from yesterday [1]. The "booktitle" key is ignored in
"inproceedings" entries when "crossref" is present. See the following excerpt from
cont-ab.bst:

So "title" is not set in the .bbl file. Good to know that I'm not the only one
who's having trouble with that.
I didn't know what I should expect when using "crossref", so I decided to not mind the missing
booktitle. But it would still be nice (as seen in your example) if the actual citation style could decide
whether or not to use "booktitle" aka "title".
HTH,
Stefan.

Step by step I am able to dig deeper in the problem. The fact that it used to work but
now doesn't may well be connected with the fact that the booktitle in those cases came
from a "crossref =" item in the bib file. Could it be the \crossref{} macro is
not recognized any longer by the ConTeXt bib module?
In file bibl-tra.mkiv I encounter the following comment:
%D \macros{bib@crossref}
%D
%D \type{\crossref} is used in database files to point to another
%D entry. Because of this special situation, it has to be defined
%D separately. Since this command will not be seen until at
%D \type{\placepublications}, it may force extra runs. The same is
%D true for \type{\cite} commands inside of publications.
In typesetting the citation in the footnote I am solely using cite, not
"\placepublications".
Does someone know why earlier the \crossref worked and now obviously has been switched
"out of the loop"?
Is there another way to force these crossref's to be carried out?

An addtionial remark here: in the .bib file this is caused by a missing "book
title".

I used the following macro for typsetting literature references in footnotes.
It worked without problems until now, but then I didn't use the bib module for
some time.
It looks like a problem has crept in with the<inproceedings> type.
The error message:
<to be read again>
\pbd:
\bibgetvart #1->\csname pbd:#1\endcsname
\plussix
Digging into the code I finally was able to nail the problem: the offending citation being of type
"t=inproceedings" was missing the "title" item. Then I observe a call with #1
in bibgetvart empty, somehow leading to a missing \endcsname error message.
Obviously earlier this wasn't a problem but now is. I guess because the code
changed since my previous work on the project.
