Hi Otared,

the actual problem arises with
\starttext
  \startformula
[A,B] =0.
  \stopformula
\stoptext

or, even worse, with

\starttext
  \startformula
[\partial,B] =0.
  \stopformula
\stoptext

Hans' solution is to use \relax whenever one has a [ at the beginning 
of a formula:

\starttext
  \startformula
\relax
[\partial,B] =0.
  \stopformula
\stoptext
