Thank for the interest. In the meanwhile I've made some advances with  
my  problem. The output of \showmathcharacters is ok if I add  
\usemathcollection[lbr] but even with this there are fonts that do no  
get loaded. For example

\usetypescript[lucida][texnansi]
\usetypescript[lucidabfm][texnansi]
\usetypescript[lucidaboldmath][texnansi]
\setupbodyfont[lucida,12pt]
\usemathcollection[lbr]

\starttext
  $\midint$
\stoptext

compiles ok but the midint is missing and the font lbme is not loaded.  
You can see the log at

http://www.ugr.es/local/alaminos/_Media/midint.log

Strange enough, i can produce the symbol by showing the whole font  
but, even in this case i do not obtain any result from $\midint$. The   
log and the result of compiling

\usemodule[fnt-01]
\usetypescript[lucida][texnansi]
\usetypescript[lucidabfm][texnansi]
\usetypescript[lucidaboldmath][texnansi]
\setupbodyfont[lucida,10pt]
\usemathcollection[lbr]

\starttext
  $\midint$
\ShowFont[LucidaNewMath-Extension][lbme]
\stoptext

is this

Can any of you reproduce this behaviour with mactex 2008? Any ideas?  
Thank you,
Jeronimo.
