TeX has it’s problem with certain errors, accept it.
It is not a problem with the program raising an error, it was how it went about doing it. It should not have to take down the entire operating system to indicate to the user that there was a non-intuitive syntactical error in typesetting.
I also agree that a segfault is not an acceptable behavior of a program, regardless of the input (unless you are doing low level stuff). But it is not clear if this is a problem on the ConTeXt side or the LuaTeX side. Patrick
