itemize and \its

itemize and \its

[Herbert Voss]

this one also worked some weeks ago:

\mainlanguage[de]
\starttext
\startitemize[8,packed]
              [width=8em,distance=2em,items=5]
  \ran {no\hss yes}
  \its I can not do it without \TeX.
  \mar{+} I use \TeX\ with other packages.
  \its I hardly use \TeX.
  \ran{\hss The future\hss}
  \its I will use \TeX\ forever.
  \its I expect no alternative to \TeX\
       in the next few years.
  \its I am looking for another system.
\stopitemize
+ Only {\it no} possible.
\stoptext

! Use of \its doesn't match its definition.

l.6  \its I

in strc-itm.mkvi there is:

\unexpanded\def\itemgroups_start
   {\dosingleempty\itemgroups_start_items}

\unexpanded\def\itemgroups_start_items[#whatever]%

which should be

\unexpanded\def\itemgroups_start_items
   {\dosingleempty\itemgroups_start_items_indeed}

\unexpanded\def\itemgroups_start_items_indeed[#whatever]%

(else the check for [] gets lost)

thanks for testing (I cleaned up the itemize code so there coul dbe more 
such issues).
