Well, it appeared with the latest beta. I cannot reproduce this
problem with the context/2003.2.11 version.

==================================================
\starttext
\defineitemgroup[test]

\starttest[A,columns]
\item one
\item two
\item three
\item four
\item five
\stoptest

\starttest[n,columns]
\item one
\item two
\item three
\item four
\item five
\stoptest

\stoptext
==================================================

gives me with the 2003.2.11 version two itemgroups in columns and no
nullfont error I have posted earlier.

with the 2003.3.3 version I get only one itemgroup in columns (the
A,columns) and the nullfont error.

I have just reinstalled both versions. The two environments I have
used for testing are identical, except for the web2c configuration
that is pointing to the root of the context installation. (I use the
env variable $TEXMFCONTEXT that is pointing to
/opt/context/2003.2.11/texmf resp. the other version) and the PATH
variable for the binaries pdfetex and mpost (which are identical) and
links to texexec, texutil and texfont.


Do you have any hints where I can start debugging? I have looked in
the obvious places (old format lying around etc. but this all look
ok).
