hm, after some playing with it i think that is a luatex bug (it expands 
the positions in a tex.write which is wrong

so we need to revert to this:

\def\syst_write_execute#1%
   {\ctxcommand{execute(\!!bs#1\!!es)}}

\unexpanded\def\write#1#%
   {\ifnum#1=18
      \expandafter\syst_write_execute
    \else
      \normalwrite#1%
    \fi}

(context itself doesn't suffer from this as it does things differently; 
maybe i should make an api and then nil \pdf*pos)
