The old version expected direct input, not a \dimen. Try this:
\starttexdefinition setxheight [#1][#2]
\switchtobodyfont[#1, 12pt]
\scratchdimen=\dimexpr#2\relax
\switchtobodyfont[#1, \cldcontext{tex.dimen.scratchdimen / tex.sp"1ex" * tex.sp"1em" .. "sp"}]
\stoptexdefinition
\definemeasure[xheight][2.5pt]
\starttext
\setxheight[adventor][10\measured{xheight}] Hello!
\stoptext
