When I regenerate the formats on my linux box with the latest release, I
get this error:
language : patterns pl for pl loaded (n=13,e=pl0,m=pl0)
(/usr/share/texmf/tex/generic/hyphen/plhyph.tex
!Improper alphabetic constant.

l.189 ./sr/o
2d5
Since nobody else complains, I guess this must be a misconfiguration on
my side, but what could it be?

seems so, is natural.ctx loaded? (i assume that you use texexec --make since i have no clue what fmtutil does)
[patterns are now in utf and i can generate formats in my linux vm without problems]

Loading the wrong pattern file, most likely. This plhyph.tex is
not one of Hans' files, it should have found lang-pl.pat instead.
Perhaps you have a file called 'aliases' somewhere that remaps
lang-pl.pat to the tetex-supplied plhyph.tex. Otherwise, something
is wrong with the search paths.

Yes, I use texmfstart texexec --make --all. Funny thing is that it's
only the Polish patterns, and that these are not taken from lang-
pl.hyp. I'll look into it again tomorrow.

Bingo, that was it. This is on Suse 10.1. by default, it ships with a
cont-usr.tex in /etc/texmf/tex/context/config/ which takes precedence
over everything else. And this file contains a couple of synonyms which
seem pretty stale:
%D Hyphenation patterns are normally sought in filed named
%D \type {lang-xx.pat}. When present on the system, those
%D patterns take precedence. (The next list is inspired on
%D Thomas Esser's \TETEX\ distribution.) This list will be
%D adapted to the actual situation.

I removed this file, and format generation proceeded normally. But I
guess that at every Suse update, it will be regenerated...
