Brief investigation and summary:

After
1. updating with macTeX package on macOSX 10.4.9 
2. even if I have update ConTeXt and regenerate formats (all, also with xetex) 

my normal ConTeXt (texexec) is ok, my XeConTeX  (texexec --xtx) is broken

This is a test code (saved as utf-8)

\enableregime[utf]
\setuppapersize[S6][S6]
%\setupbodyfont[ss, 12pt]
\definetypeface[Optima][rm][Xserif][Optima]
\setupbodyfont[Optima]

\starttext

Here I'm working, with all you need: \crlf
òîèéàùç

Don't uncomment this

%\startitemize
%\item a malicious item
%\stopitemize

or this:
%$\to$
\stoptext

Uncommenting makes compilation fail with:

** WARNING ** Invalid CMap
** ERROR ** pdf_ref_obj(): passed invalid object.

Output file removed.


(More, XeTeX is still slow)

tested also from terminal

Thanks Hans,
So, how can I update binaries?

depends on the platform ... debian ships intermediate updates, at 
akira's site there are fresh win binaries, osx distributions have good 
updaters, and for luatex there is luatex.org and fabrice's gforge repos

I did this interview where I just mentioned that I read Foucault. Who doesn't in university, right? I was in this strip club giving this guy a lap dance and all he wanted to do was to discuss Foucault with me. Well, I can stand naked and do my little dance, or I can discuss Foucault, but not at the same time; too much information.
