OK. Is there some convenient way to revert to the last known good
version of standalone ConTeXt?

I ended up installing the Ubuntu package, which was confused by my
standalone install until I deleted that. Then I had to mess with
OSFONTDIR to get my fonts working again. I then got the error (noted
on the mailing list before) involving

   ! Math error: parameter \Umathquad\displaystyle is not set.

which as you probably recall, is caused by

   font with asked name 'lmmath' is not found using lookup 'file'
   unknown font lmmath, loading aborted

when trying to use a custom typescript that doesn't have a math font,
and \startitemize.

There is a Ubuntu package lmodern which claims to be OpenType versions
of Latin Modern, and it's installed as a dependency when installing
Ubuntu's ConTeXt package, but it only includes LMMathSymbols,
LMMathExtension and LMMathItalic, none of which seem acceptable to
ConTeXt as lmmath.

After struggling with *that* for a while, I found the easiest solution
was to go to 
http://www.gust.org.pl/projects/e-foundry/lm-math/download/index_html
and download the latest lmmath, rename it as lmmath.otf and install it
in my personal ~/.fonts.

Noting all this here as searching the mailing list and Google hadn't
pointed me at that solution. Is there a better one?
