I downloaded the (hopefully) current lua-files from
http://minimals.contextgarden.net/current/context/alpha/tex/context/base/,
renamed them and tested with luaotfload [2011/02/04 v1.23 OpenType
layout system] (as a first step without the new font-lua.lua).

It doesn't work currently. I identified already some problematic
changes between the versions used currently by luaotfload and the
newest context files:

* register_base_substitution has been renamed to
registerbasesubstitution (used in luaotfload.lua line 137)

* fonts.define seems to be named fonts.definers now (luaotfload.lua
line 87)

* Instead of logs.report the context files use now report_prepare
(with a different syntax) which is perhaps the source of the error
I'm getting now:

J:/MiKTeX2.9/tex/luatex/luaotfload/otfl-luat-ovr.lua:19: bad arg
ument #2 to 'format' (string expected, got nil).
