I should follow my own advice! As the TeXbook points out, Plain TeX has a perfectly good \cases command which is also present in ConTeXt, and which you use like this:

  P_{r-j} =
  \cases{
       0                 & if $r-j$ is odd,\cr
       r!(-1)^{(r-j)/2}  & if $r-j$ is even.\cr
    }

Note that, in this version, the text in the second column is _not_ enclosed in a \text command; the \cases command handles that automatically.

Thank you very much. This is just what I need.
