\showlayout doesn't (2006.10.04 beta)

[Sanjoy Mahajan]

This test file doesn't produce the frames around the margins (2006.10.04
beta):

\starttext
\showlayout
\input tufte
\stoptext

I can't test it on the live context (the missing cont-new.mkii) to make
sure it's not something silly on my part.  But I reverted to the
2006.09.28 beta and it had the same problem, then to the 2006.08.08
release, which was fine.

Something wrong with \showframe

\showframe
\starttext
test
\stoptext

i'll have a look, probably a side effect of the (much faster) background handler used at that place

The garden now works again, but only until Hans uploads the new beta,
so keep fingers crossed that he won't forget to add that file in the
next release ;)

I'm sorry. I didn't notice that the new beta was already online and
fixed (at least in that respect).
