Yes, that's what I'm seeing too.

It should be defined in "char-ent.lua" or "char-def.lua" (I think?),
although I'm not sure why that's not working, since the other symbols
defined in those files work just fine. I've reported the issue upstream

    https://mailman.ntg.nl/archives/list/ntg-context@ntg.nl/thread/GCITK22RNY5KTA2J2GRPGP64FVIVAOF6/

so it should hopefully be fixed soonish.

Thanks,
