No, not that I can notice. (first-setup.bat and context --generate, context
--make don't show any errors.)

C:\contextminimal>bin\texlua.exe --version
This is LuaTeX, Version beta-0.40.6-2009081408 (Web2C 2009) luatex.web >=
v14240

C:\contextminimal>tex\texmf-mswin\bin\luatex.exe --version
This is LuaTeX, Version beta-0.40.6-2009081408 (Web2C 2009) luatex.web >=
v14240

I downloaded it less than 2 hours back. I even tried over-writing(after
running first-setup.bat but the version of texlua.exe in the above file is
beta-0.40.6…
