Well, I've already looked at this. AFAIK no magic there:
from tex/latex/pscyr/pscyr.sty:
\def\codefault{fco}
\DeclareRobustCommand\cofamily
[EMAIL PROTECTED]@alphabet\rmfamily\mathrm
\fontfamily\codefault\selectfont}
\DeclareTextFontCommand{\textco}{\cofamily}
there is also definition of bold math mode and
\renewcommand{\hbar}{{\mathchar'26\mkern-8.5muh}}
from tex/latex/pscyr/t2afco.fd:
\DeclareFontFamily{T2A}{fco}{}
\DeclareFontShape{T2A}{fco}{m}{it}{- fcori6t}{}
from fonts/map/dvips/pscyr/pscyr.map:
fcori6a CollegePSCyr-Italic T2AEncoding ReEncodeFont t2a.enc
colle8.pfb
Encoding file fonts/enc/dvips/pscyr/t2a.enc, but pdftex ignores
ReEncodeFont, as stated in documentation.
Hope this helps.

So you should use fcori6t in ConTeXt as well. You are using the
wrong metrics, and that is the cause of the disappearing space.

Pdftx does do the actual re-encoding, it just ignores the
supplied string value.

Oh, thank you, I see it now. But how font filename and basename is
resolved from map file if tfm in source and in map file differ? If LaTeX
uses *6t for T2A encoding, but in map file there is only *6a, how it
works? I've reread the docs, but this moment remains unclear.
The *6t tfm's works as expected, I'm just trying to understand what all
this files doing.

Yes, I figured it out from experiments.

Thanks, this explains the situation. Is there a command to trace font
loading? Which files are loaded, etc.
