you can comment that line (for the moment)

     \def\docalculatetotalnoteheight
       {\ifcase\clevernotes % tricky here ! ! ! to be sorted out ! ! !
          \doaddtototalnoteheight\currentnoteins
        \else
%        \doaddtototalnoteheight\currentbackupnoteins
        \fi}

keep in mind that footnotes in columns are not yet done (in mkiv) 
awaiting access to inserts (later this year)

Perhaps the example was a bit too minimal. With this change, notice the 
output of

\setupfootnotes
   [location=columns]

\setupcolumns[balance=no]

\starttext
\startcolumns
Don Knuth's\footnote{The creator of \TEX} quote:
\input knuth
\stopcolumns
\stoptext

Notice the box0 in the 2nd column.

OK. I will just use MKII for the moment.
