this works ok here:

\startbuffer[pdf-pages]
   \starttext
     page 1 \page
     page 2 \page
     page 3 \page
   \stoptext
\stopbuffer

\savebuffer[pdf-pages][pdf-pages.tex]

\executesystemcommand{context pdf-pages}
\executesystemcommand{mkdir testdir}
\executesystemcommand{move /Y pdf-pages.pdf testdir/28.pdf}

\starttext
     \setupexternalfigures[directory={./testdir}]
     \externalfigure[28][page=3]
\stoptext

so, no * in the filename

however, you can do this

\starttext

\startbuffer[pdf-pages]
   \starttext
     page 1 \page page 2
   \stoptext
\stopbuffer

\typesetbuffer[pdf-pages][page=2,frame=on]

\stoptext

this has the advantage that when the buffer does not change, you get no 
new run either
