\unprotect

\def\dousepublications#1%
   {\doonlyonce{#1.\f!bibextension}
      {\let\@@savedpar\par
       \let\par\ignorespaces
       \ifhmode\kern\zeropoint\fi
       \readfile{#1.\f!bibextension}
         {\showmessage\m!publications{4}{#1.\f!bibextension}}
         {\showmessage\m!publications{2}{#1.\f!bibextension}}%
       \ifhmode\removeunwantedspaces\fi
       \let\par\@@savedpar}}

\protect

should also work ... the reason for the automatic loading is that it 
circumvents problems with projects, products, components etc where 
settings can come after teh first starttext so that's not the best hook 
then

of course implicit loading as suggested by taco is the best
