All, and esp. Hans, Taco,

I'm still experimenting with the new moduleparameter mechanism. One  
thing I can't get to work is using it in a \definefont. Here's my  
minimal example:

\startmodule[mymod]

\unprotect

\setupmodule[font=Times]

\definefontsynonym[Times][ec-TimesNewRoman] % valid name

\definefont[myfont][\currentmoduleparameter{font}]

\message{The myfont is \currentmoduleparameter{font}}

\protect
\stopmodule
\endinput

\usemodule[mymod][font=Times]

\starttext

Hello world!

\myfont and hello again

\purefontname\font

\stoptext

In the log file, I get:

(./t-mymod.tex The myfont is Times)

So the definefont should work (if I define \definefont[myfont] 
[Times], I get the expected output), but the file fails to compile,  
with this error:

! Missing \endcsname inserted.

What am I missing?
