Hi,
while playing around with colors, I accidentally used two mutual color
definitions. Stupid thing to do, but shit happens. :-D
This example ends in an infinite loop.
%----------------------
\definecolor[foo][red]
\definecolor[bar][foo]
\starttext
\definecolor[foo][bar]
\color[foo] foo \color[bar] bar
\stoptext
%----------------------
Regards, Peter

That's hard to catch but anyway you can't complain that you don't get
what you asked for -)
