The problem is the empty second argument.

When you pass two arguments with \startitemize the first argument os for keywords (e.g. packed or fit) and second argument is for assignments (e.g. width=3cm) in your case context is looking for the keywords “before=\startlinecorrection” and “after=\stoplinecorrection” which results in a loop.
Even if that were the case, that's a fragility that no program should its users endure. It should probably have bailed with an error message after seeing that the second argument was empty rather than taking down the entire operating system with it.
TeX has it’s problem with certain errors, accept it.
But regardless, this does not seem to be the case. The following minimal still blows up, even with an assignment in the second parameter.
\starttext
\startitemize[before=\startlinecorrection,after= \stoplinecorrection][start=11] \item foo \stopitemize
\stoptext
You can’t have a assignment in both parameters because this would lead to the same problem as before, combine both settings in one argument and it works. Wolfgang
