I Hans,

I just sent a mail with a possible patch, before I read this answer from you
:-)
As I say there, the patches work (at least for me) and I had updated context
mkii a few hours ago, so I don't know if the betas you mentioned have
already
been installed...

Hope the proposed patches be helpful...
Thx very much for your answer.
