One preferrably needs to add at least
    \mainlanguage[ru]

But two big warning signs:
- this doesn't work by default with anything but the latest patched
minimals (one can add \usetypescriptfile[type-gyr] on older
distributions or I can send instructions how to patch older
distributions to make it work)
- the latest patched minimals don't work for me at the moment

A note to Andrey: you need to compile the document with either
"texexec --xtx" or "context". (I'm trying to sum up some additional
notes.)
