I'm now using

ConTeXt  ver: 2004.6.30  fmt: 2004.7.27  int: english  mes: english

and your example

\usemodule[nath]

\starttext

$a, b, \dots, n$
\[
a=b, \dots c=d \dots
\]
\stoptext

uses, in order, \ldots, \ldots, \cdots which sounds like the
correct behaviour to me. The engine is

This is pdfeTeX, Version 3.141592-1.20a-rc4-2.1 (MiKTeX 2.4)

Also, I'm not sure that will work with text inside math. Can
you design a small test case that uses \over (directly or
indirectly) in normal text and in some \text inside a math
environment so that I can see what solution works fine?

In the meantime, I'm thinking along the lines of something like

\def\over{%
 [EMAIL PROTECTED] command \string\over }
  {No more a valid command. Replace {A \over B} with \frac A B.}%
  \let\next\relax
 [EMAIL PROTECTED]
\def\atop{%
 [EMAIL PROTECTED] command \string\atop }
  {No more a valid command. Use array instead.}%
  \let\next\relax
 [EMAIL PROTECTED]
\def\choose{%
 [EMAIL PROTECTED] command \string\choose }
  {No more a valid command. Replace {A \choose B} with \binom A B.}%
  \lext\next\relax
 [EMAIL PROTECTED]

which should be robust enough. Can you try it in the context
where my previous solution busted?
