Two patches are needed in syst-ext.tex:

(1) change last line in:

\def\docompareitems#1%
   {\doifnotempty{#1}
      {\@EA\comparecommand\@EA{\!!tempa}{#1}\relax
       \ifnum\comparedresult<2
         \ifnum\scratchcounter=\commalistsize
           \@EA\@EA\@EA\def\@EA\@EA\@EA\sortedcommalist
           \@EA\@EA\@EA{\@EA\sortedcommalist\@EA,\!!tempa}%
         \fi
       \else % old element larger
         \@EA\def\@EA\newcommalistelement\@EA{\!!tempa,#1}%
         \replaceincommalist\sortedcommalist\scratchcounter
         \expandafter\quitcommalist
       \fi}%
       \advance\scratchcounter \plusone} % ! ! !

(2) handle n=1 case in:

\def\sortcommalist[#1]#2%
   {\getcommalistsize[#1]%
    \ifnum\commalistsize>1
      \let\sortedcommalist\empty
      \let\comparecommand#2%
      \processcommalist[#1]\dosortcommacommand
    \else
      \def\sortedcommalist{#1}%
    \fi}

Hi Hans,

I've applied the patches but it still does not work. Additionally, Taco
example still produces 1,2 instead of 1,2,3. I'm using the context ver
2003.3.11 if that helps.

Regards.

Hi,

Works for me now as well. I'd forgotten to regenerate the format.

Hi Martin, Hans, rest of the group,

It took me a while to track down this bug. It is actually a bug in
the definition of \sortcommacommand in newer ConTeXt-es.

Minimal example:

\def\mylist{1,2,3}
\sortcommacommand[\mylist]\donumericcompare
\message{\sortedcommalist} % reports 1,2 !!
