Hi,
In the lastest conTeXt, typing a ' in math mode typesets nothing and gives an error (undefined control sequence). You have to use ^\prime, instead.
Are you using MikTeX by any chance? This is broken exactly in the version which MikTeX is using (which is the last one uploaded on CTAN). You can take a recent version of ConTeXt (cont-tmf.zip from pragma), unzip it, refresh filename database and recreate formats (either explicitely for cont-en or uncheck the box "exclude this format when updating" and recreate all formats). (The exact phrases might be slightly different.) The problem is that a recent version of ConTeXt requires pdfTeX 1.40 (but the described procedure worked for me in 2.5 and broke the whole MikTeX in 2.6, although when I tried to reproduce the bug(?) for the second time, it worked again). It's up to Taco to decide when to upload a more recent and reasonably stable version of ConTeXt to CTAN, but now when MikTeX 2.6 with the latest pdfTeX has officially been released, it would make sense to get rid of that bug in MikTeX (not necessary without introducing new ones). The version of ConTeXt on TeX Live (with a fixed "euro bug") seems stable enough to me, but of course it could be a later version as well. MikTeX doesn't include XeTeX yet, so the recently broken font handling wouldn't influence it too much. (As far as I know, MikTeX is basically the only really important distribution which fetches ConTeXt from CTAN. Other distributions are either based on TeXLive or fetch recent files from Pragma.) Mojca
