Adding \obeylines as Wolfgang indicated did not resolve the issue with my test case (shortened below), while removing #5 as Hans suggested does resolve it.

There is a difference between

  \startFOO
  …
  \stopFOO

and

  \startFOO … \stopFOO

because context gobbles only content in the same line as \startFOO when you add \obeylines and in the first case there is nothing which can be removed.

Thank you, Wolfgang, for the explanation.

When I use

\startTest\TestText\stopTest

\startTest
\TestText\stopTest

it does indeed work with the obeylines fix. It fails on the one-line version and also on

\startTest\TestText
\stopTest

I have no problem using the multi-line versions. I only reduced it to a single line in preparing the MWE. I have, however, seen such one-line incantations in other examples on the list and possibly in the wiki. I do not recall who wrote them.

I will now leave this to the developers to handle as they see best.
