Hi Vyatcheslav,

I encountered the same problem a couple of weeks ago ... and it will  
probably not be fixed until luaTeX is out.

The reason is that Hans is currently reworking bits and pieces of  
ConTeXt in order to prepare for the transition to luaTeX ... and font  
handling is apparently one of the things undergoing a massive  
overhaul these days. Unfortunately this appears to have broken  
compatibility with XeTeX. At the Epen conference Hans told me that  
he's going to finalize ConTeXt's font interface code for luaTeX first  
and then eventually backport everything to XeTeX.

So for the time being your best bet might be to stick with the  
January version of ConTeXt included in TeXLive 2007. It's fairly  
stable and can be used for production purposes although it obviously  
won't benefit from the latest bug fixes to parts other than fonts.  
Alternatively, you might as well want to wait for the inaugural  
release of luaTeX.

Best,
Oliver
