Hi Martin,

http://tracker.luatex.org/view.php?id=682

It seems that I just hit a very hard to solve issue which needs
not yet available support from the luatex side.

Patricks solution seems not very practical and error prone, so I
settled with this ugly but still readable workaround:

\def\cmd
        {\newdimen\mydimen
         \mydimen=50pt}

\starttexdefinition action
        \cmd
        \startluacode
                if tex.dimen.mydimen < tex.dimen.textwidth then %
                        context("is smaller")
                else %
                        context("is not smaller")
                end %
        \stopluacode
\stoptexdefinition

\action

you probably over code things ... instead of storing you can pass the valus directly

\def\largerthantextwidth#1%
  {\cldcontext
     {if \number\dimexpr#1<tex.dimen.textwidth then
        "is smaller"
      else
        "is equal or larger"
      fi}}

you don't need to store in a dimen, as effectively these are just numbers:

local temp = \number\dimexpr#1 ;

...

if temp<tex.dimen.textwidth then
   context("is smaller")
else
   context("is equal or larger")
fi
