Hi,

Same here. Interestingly, the minimal example

% start example
\starttext
\placefigure[top][ref:somefigure]{some caption}{\externalfigure[cow][width=0.5\makeupwidth]}
\stoptext
% stop example

works fine. 

I have managed to reproduce the error on my machine (MAC OS X: ConTeXt  ver: 2012.07.07 15:04 MKIV  fmt: 2012.7.8) by putting multiple "\input knuth"s (note, that I had to put them exactly as given below; not introducing an empty line after "\input knuth" or fewer "\input knuth"s in front, does not yield an error):

% start example
\starttext
\input knuth

\input knuth

\input knuth

\placefigure[top][ref:somefigure]{some caption}{\externalfigure[cow][width=0.5\makeupwidth]}

\input knuth

\input knuth

\stoptext
% stop example

Hope this helps.

Cheers,
Andreas

Looks like this is what triggers an error in my document too. [Ref. "Broken Nightly 2012.07.08 20:02 - unpredictable errors on blank lines"]

Commenting out all floats got rid of the error.

Is the following a known issue with this beta? When a float block moves the error appears:
ConTeXt  ver: 2012.07.04 23:48 MKIV  fmt: 2012.7.6  int: english/english

! Extra \fi.

A short example is difficult to procure, but adding one line of text, inducing the float to move, triggers the error.
