When using refcommand=authoryears and Mk IV the first reference is formatted incorrectly.
There is the left parenthesis, then a line break, then the rest of the reference followed by the right parenthesis.
Here is the cause: the first \cite in mkiv internally runs \usepublications[\jobname]. This inputs bib-test.bbl, which contains a \par, and that is where the new line comes from.
A workaround is to add
\usepublications[\jobname]
in the document preamble.
It works in mkii because in mkii, that command is executed at \starttext.
For Hans: perhaps \usemodule[bib] should run the command? I know that is supposed to be obsolete, but I assume you do not want to use the odd logic from mkii in mkiv.
Best wishes, Taco
That solves both the problems I noted. Thanks!
