Subject: Convertnumber with \ref[number] fails in MkIV, works in LMTX

Hello list,

The following fails with ConTeXt  ver: 2021.10.24 21:45 MKIV but works 
with the companion LMTX. The error message is:tex error       > tex 
error on line 6 in file G:/TestConTeXt/convert.tex: ! Incompatible glue 
units , pointing to the second \convertnumber line.

    \definelabel[XX]%[text=,before=,after=,alternative=inright]
    \startTEXpage[offset=2em]
      abc\XX[xx]\par
      \ref[number][xx] ·
      \convertnumber{r}{1} ·
      \convertnumber{R}{\ref[number][xx]}
    \stopTEXpage

In this case I am trying to display with roman numerals the number 
generated in the label created through \definelabel.

Suggestions welcomed.

Rik
