Hmm.  I cut and pasted the above code into the existing cont-new.tex
and tried the same code:

    \starttext

    \startfrontmatter

    \setupnumbering[conversion=romannumerals]
    \setuppagenumber[number=1]
    hi.  i am in the front.

    \startbodymatter

    \setupnumbering[conversion=numbers]
    \setuppagenumber[number=1]
    hi.  i am from the body.

    \stoptext

... but the resulting document still has consecutive arabic numerals 1
and 2 at the top of the two pages.  cont-new.tex is getting loaded,
though.
