You're right, this helped me to find the problematic parts in the MkII
and MkIV macros. I was able to make a working example where I commented
the problematic parts.

I hope this helps Hans to fix it and thank you for the hint.

\startmode[mkiv]

\long\def\startcatcodetable#1#2\stopcatcodetable
   {\bgroup
    %\catcodetable\scratchcatcodetable
    \the\setdefaultcatcodes
    #2%
    \savecatcodetable#1\relax
    \egroup}

\stopmode

\startmode[mkii]

\def\catcodetable#1%
   {\mathchardef\currentcatcodetable#1%
    %\the\setdefaultlowercatcodes
    %\ifrecatcodeuppercharacters\the\setdefaultuppercatcodes\fi
    \the\csname @@cct:\number#1\endcsname}

\stopmode

\newcatcodetable \mycatcodetable

\startcatcodetable \mycatcodetable
     \catcode`\$ = 12
     \catcode`\& = 12
     \catcode`\% = 12
\stopcatcodetable

\def\normaltext
   {\pushcatcodetable
    \setcatcodetable\mycatcodetable
    \donormaltext}

\def\donormaltext#1%
   {#1%
    \popcatcodetable}

\starttext
\normaltext{Procter & Gamble's stock climbed to $2, a 10% gain.}
\stoptext
