I missed that discussion. I still have the problem. It happens when I
use \startbodymatter...\stopbodymatter:
\setuppagenumbering
[option=doublesided,
alternative=doublesided]
\starttext
\startbodymatter
\dorecurse{5}{\input tufte\par \input knuth\par}
\stopbodymatter
\stoptext
In my experiments I have not yet been able to force an even number of
pages.
There is an easy work-around for me: use --pdfselect or \filterpages to
trim off the last page.
Note: the reason I am so fussy about this is that I am dealing with a
printer service bureau which needs the document "just so."

I don't know. It is something I need in all my big projects. Would
\setuplayout be more logical? I have no strong preference as long as I
have a way. Fixing up the doc with --pdfselect is good enough for now.
