Yes, this sometimes happens. Context stores is transitional data in \jobname.tuo for 'texexec' (\jobname.tuc for 'context') and if you use the chart module, I know for a fact that at least the .tuo tends to lag behind a bit. The solution is to run 'texexec' (or 'context', but I suspect the problem is with 'texexec' ) once more without doing any edits.
