I see now that "still.pdf" has a full chapter (#3, titled “Scanning
Input”) and page 79 explains exactly this.
Many thanks for your help,

But now it seems that luatex has disappeared from our bin directories. Was this intended (because of the issues with the build farm)?

I wonder whether the path order might give priority. But in any case, I wonder whether it is intended that current latest (from the ConTeXt distribution) is intended neither to have the latest LuaTeX nor to have any LuaTeX binary at all. Hans (or Luigi), are we (just humble users) missing something here?
