Those kind of bugs usually lay deep down in the lua code, so you usually
get better results by reporting it to Hans (note in ConTeXt only -- and
--- are supported, otherwise the code is essentially the same).

ConTeXt beta require luatex 0.65.x and likely to require even higher
versions as development goes, so sync is unlikely to happen before
texlive2011 (the code we borrow might not actually be that dependant on
new luatex, but one need to check carefully).
