I am confused. Consider the following file:

\unexpanded\def\test{Test}
\test
\bye

Run it through ConTeXt, and it compiles fine. Run it through pdftex (plain 
format) and it gives:

This is pdfTeXk, Version 3.141592-1.40.3 (Web2C 7.5.6)
  %&-line parsing enabled.
entering extended mode
(./plain.tex
! Missing { inserted.
<to be read again>
                    \def
l.1 \unexpanded\def
                    \test{Test}
?
Runaway text?
\def \test {Test} \test
! Forbidden control sequence found while scanning text of \unexpanded.


Isn't \unexpanded a primitive in pdftex? Why does it behave differently in 
ConTeXt and plain pdftex?
