[NTG-context] brace error after a \placefigure

13 May 2006

      I can't figure out what causes the brace error with this test.tex
example file:

\starttext
\placefigure[margin]{A caption}{\externalfigure[]}

{test}.
\stoptext

$ texexec test
  [...]
  ! Too many }'s.
  l.4 {test}
	    .
  ? H
  You've closed more groups than you opened.
  Such booboos are generally harmless, so keep going.

If I change 

{test}.

to

The {test}.

then it compiles fine.

$ texexec --version
