Actually, I just made some progress.  The point seems to be that there
is a whole new naming scheme for tfms in the 2001-11 ConTeXt: tfm
names are prefixed with "ec-", "texnansi-" and so on, depending on the
encoding.  You must specify a default encoding, then ensure that
the tfms can be found.  One way would be to copy or symlink the
original tfms to the new names, but better (IMO) is to add a set of
"fontsynonyms" to ConTeXt's type-enc.tex, so that the old names are
usable.  For example, I added the following so that the existing
Y&Y tfms for Lucida would be used:

  \definefontsynonym [texnansi-lbr]               [lbr]
  \definefontsynonym [texnansi-lbd]               [lbd]
  \definefontsynonym [texnansi-lbdi]              [lbdi]
  \definefontsynonym [texnansi-lbi]               [lbi]
  \definefontsynonym [texnansi-lbrsc]             [lbrsc]
  \definefontsynonym [texnansi-lbdsc]             [lbdsc]
  \definefontsynonym [texnansi-lbsl]              [lbsl]

My next question is, how do we get the presentation templates working
with the 2001/11 release?  The directives to make headings boldface
are broken (e.g. \bfc doesn't do anything).
