You need to set automatichyphenmode=0 to see the problem in context:
the handling of the --- ligature is clearly broken in some cases:
\starttext
\automatichyphenmode=0
A---B A --- B
\stoptext
> Hm, I don't see those lines here
I see
local tail = getprev(stop)
in line 844 of font-ots.lua in a just updated context minimals.
If I change this to
local tail = stop
as suggested by Marcel and rebuild the formats, the ligature behaves
again.

TeXLive is frozen and pretest has begun, so I don't see a danger to
apply patches now.
