Something is wrong with alternative=num|num-fr. Consider

%------test.tex---------
\usemodule[bib]

\setuppublications[alternative=num]
% num-fr also does not work

\starttext
  The manual of bib||module is \cite[me].
\placepublications
\stoptext

%-------------------------------

%-------test.bbl------------------
\startpublication[k=me,
t=manual,
a=Hoekwater,
y=2006,
s=TH2006,
n=1,
u=http://contextgarden.net/Bibliography]
\author[]{Taco}[T.]{}{Hoekwater}
\title{\CONTEXT\ Publication Module, The user documententation}
\pubyear{2006}
\note{In case you didn't know: it's the document you are reading now}
\pages{14}
\stoppublication

%------------------------------------------------------------


The output looks like

----------------------------------------
The manual of bib--module is [1].
