2 possibilities

a. Your ConTeXt format is not consistent. Delete your ConTeXt install (ok this 
might not be necessary), make sure you don't have two Contexts (e.g. one in 
texmf and another in texmf-var), reinstall the latest ConTeXt, refresh the 
fndb BEFORE you generate the formats, regenerate the formats, and it should 
work.

b. Also, are you sure that you are running aleph in extended mode? Giuseppe, 
is extended mode the default for aleph or does it have to be explicitly 
invoked?

If Aleph is running in extended mode, and if every ConTeXt file is in the 
fndb,
then it really should work...

Aleph does not automatically switch to extended mode (it will
before the final release, though). But IIRC texexec
automatically triggers extended mode for Aleph ... Hans? Is
'aleph' among the engines for which extended mode is chosen?

sure:

        if ( $TeXExecutable =~ /etex|eetex|pdfetex|pdfeetex|pdfxtex|xpdfetex|eomega|aleph/io ) {
            $TeXPrefix = "*";
        }

Mind adding "xetex" to that list on your next release? :)
