Minimal example:

I have tried with all kinds of braces in all possible places, to no 
avail. Or am I missing anything terribly obvious?
It is not terribly obvious, but your \framed commands are missing a 
second argument, see the big manual, p. 227, where it gives the model:

\startcombination[n*m]
        {text1}{subcaption 1}
        {text2}{subcaption 2}
        ....... .............
\stopcombination
and says: "The second argument can be empty: {xxxx}{}." That kind of 
implies that the braces in the second argument are necessary and 
apparently that's what texexec is complaining about...


This works for me:
% ------------------
\starttext
\startcombination[2]
  \framed{here}{}
  \framed{there}{}
\stopcombination
\stoptext
% ------------------
So just add the two pairs of braces after your \framed and things should 
work out!
