This isn’t a bug. The problem with your footnote is that context
reads the note at page 1 where it saw the float and placed therefore
the note on page one but the float itself wasn’t placed because
context saved it and flushed it at the next page.

What you can do is to move the float first to a separate page
first and used a fixed float (force keyword) to immediately flush it. 

The saved method is to use local footnotes (you can find example
on the wiki) where the notes are placed below the float.

\starttext

This is a sample document to demonstrate a possible bug. You will
probably see a footnote below which appears before the page it's
referenced from.

\startpostponing
\placeintermezzo[force][block:example]
  {Demonstrating a bug}
  {\startframedtext[width=0.8\makeupwidth]
   This is a rather dull intermezzo.\footnote{But it does at least demonstrate a bug.}
   \stopframedtext}
\stoppostponing

\stoptext
