Of course I can also upgrade all the binaries to the latest version in
full awareness that this will break ConTeXt (and possibly some other
scripts) if that's what users want. But if anyone would really like to
test the binary without compiling it and before it makes it to
tlcontrib, you can get it from
http://svn.contextgarden.net/suite-bin/tex/.
