All,

This has just killed my for the last two hours:

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\starttext

\startitemize[n,columns,one]

\item Kevin Yokoyama, a professor of mathematics at the College of
the Redwoods, offers this gem.

\startitemize[a]
\item hello
\stopitemize

\stopitemize

\stoptext
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

I get the following error message: 

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

\stopopsomming ...mmenfalse \stopkolommen
                                          \getvalue {\??op \itemlevel...

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

If I change it to

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\starttext

\startitemize[n,column,one]

\item Kevin Yokoyama, a professor of mathematics at the College of
the Redwoods, offers this gem.

\startitemize[a]
\item hello
\stopitemize

\stopitemize

\stoptext
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

it compiles fine. If I change it to

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\starttext

\startitemize[n,columns,one]

\item Kevin Yokoyama, a professor of mathematics at the College of
the Redwoods, offers this gem.

\stopitemize

\stoptext
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

then it compiles fine! Yikes!

P.S. I know, I know, I shouldn't start with

\startitemize[n,columns,one]

I oughta just

\startitemize[n]

But this actually occurred when I needed to start with

\startitemize[n,continue,columns,one]

as previous was in two columns.

Is this a bug?
