We have a more accurate limiter so you get one more word (keep in mind that the ... is part of the width). Then, when being used stretch and shrink kick in and your '4cm' gives too much space. I'll enable the features that freezes the spacing to fit the width but even then you will overflow. So, you need to decrease the 4cm.

Bump.
This is still a problem. Can anyone acknowledge that the problem exists
outside my own installation? If so, is there a work-around? An explanation?

Hello list,
About two months ago (2020-08-26) I described a difference between
LMTX and MkIV in the setting of index registers entries, and more
particularly, in the trimming of text to fit the available width
therein. I have now created a smallish example to demonstrate the problem.
I do notice that the problem is very sensitive to the width settings,
and slight variations in width create different results with both engines.
This ConTeXt input:
\definepapersize [pinched crown quarto]
[width=6.69in,
height=9.61in]
\setuppapersize [pinched crown quarto]
\setuplayout [width=fit,
backspace=1.4in, cutspace=1in,
leftmargin=0.65in, rightmargin=0.65in]
\setupregister [index]
[n=2, balance=no, maxwidth=4cm]
\starttext
\startchapter[title={Index Test}]
\index{Anonymous+Felix quem faciunt aliena pericula cautum}
\index{{Diderot, Denis}+Et des boyaux du dernier prêtre, Serrons
le cou du dernier roi}
\index{{Dunne, Finley Peter}+Thrust ivrybody, but cut th’ ca-ards}
\index{Eisenhower+Dwight D.+influence … by the military-industrial
complex}
\index{Eisenhower+Dwight D.+plundering, for our own ease and
convenience, the precious resources of tomorrow}
\placeindex
\stopchapter
\stoptext
produces, with MkIV:
and with LMTX:
The example code shows one other instance as well, in the fourth
indexed entry.
Beside looking uglier, this results in a couple more pages for the
same number of index entries.
As I noted in my first description of the problem, this may not be
unique to register processing, and perhaps it is an issue with
limitatetext or doboundtext, or something else entirely.
