I think I have found the problem and a test file: the problem occurs  
when I define two fonts with different rscales. In this case, only the  
last defined rscale is taken into account, the other one is discarded.  
Here's the file:

\usetypescript[times]
\setupbodyfont[times,12pt]

\definetypeface [one] [rm] [serif] [palatino]   [default] [rscale=2]
\definetypeface [two] [rm] [serif] [schoolbook] [default] [rscale=0.5]

\starttext

Hello world! \switchtobodyfont[one] One \switchtobodyfont[two] Two

\stoptext

If you switch the two \definetypeface lines, you'll see what I mean.  
And since my module defines both a font "greek" and "altgreek," each  
with its own rscale, that's why I was seeing it in my files and  
couldn't reproduce the error at first.

Not easy to find...

All best
