I don't know the status of this port. However, Carsten Heinz no longer 
maintains listings, currently Brooks Moses does. Brooks used to be active 
in both ConTeXt and LaTeX communities and had started a project of 
converting core LaTeX functionality into ConTeXt. As such he is an ideal 
person to evaluate the feasibility of porting listings to ConTeXt. I would 
suggest writing to him to see his opinion on this.
