Hi Hans,
If you use "\show" anywhere in a document with MkIV, ConTeXt treats it
as a fatal error and immediately exits. The following document produces
the expected output with MkXL, but exits with "mtx-context | fatal
error" with MkIV:
\disabledirectives[system.quitonerror]
\show\show
\showtokens{\showtokens}
\starttext
Hello, world!
\stoptext
lmtx is a bit more granular indeed and carries on but doing that in mkiv
would demand more code and be unreliable anyway; it's not like many
users use \show and then go on anyway
