I have now upgraded using a procedure similar to the one suggested by
Eckhart. I will publish the steps I have taken to do this later but a
problem that has emerged is a greater fussiness with colors. Previously I
could specify \red near the end

\setupcolors[state=start]
\starttext
This is \red red
\stoptext

doesn't work

\setupcolors[state=start]
\starttext
This is {\red red}
\stoptext

does work

Of more concern is that

\setupcolors[state=start]
\setuphead
    [section]
    [style={\ss\tfc\blue}]
\starttext
\section{introduction}
abc
\stoptext

or

\setupcolors[state=start]
\setuphead
    [section]
    [style=\ss\tfc\blue]
\starttext
\section{introduction}
abc
\stoptext

do not work the second version used to work with the November 2001 release.
How do I now get a colored section head?

(I hope this is not because I have made an error in the upgrade)

TIA
