Hi all,

I was trying to document the \marking()() command (which is in itself a bit of 
an odd thing, but
not the point of this message). It is supposedly to be used inside of

   \startfigure … \stopfigure (lmtx)
or with the old name:
   \placestartfigure … \placestopfigure (mkii/mkiv)

but as I was trying to produce an example, I discovered that

   \startfigure … \stopfigure

does not seem to work at all ? no output appears. Is this command supposed to 
still work, even?

% MWE (assuming I understand the supposed syntax correctly):
\starttext
\startfigure[mycow][cow.pdf][width=4cm]
...
\stopfigure
some text
\stoptext
that's an oldy ... pre-metapost, pre-positioning, pre-layers ... (maybe make it into a compatibility (auto loaded) module if not really used any more)

(1) parsing issue i.e. not adapted to recent 'upgrade'
(2) due to grouping the mechanism thinks ther ei sno image (so it also shows a dummy)

fixed (hackerish)
