The problem has been solved. It turned out Ruby is installed twice on my
computer. One is the regular download from www.ruby-lang.org, the other one
came with cygwin (which I wasn't aware of). The cygwin path string was
before the c:\ruby path string. When I moved the c:\ruby path before the
cygwin path Context worked correctly.
And this took me a full day of hacking. Sigh.

Thanks for all your help.

Harrie.
