With the latest (2022-12-21) LMTX I see a regression in xtables. The following code: \starttext \startxtable \startxrow \startxcell This is a line of text. \stopxcell \startxcell \contextversion \stopxcell \stopxrow \stopxtable \stoptext produces this with 2022-12-09: and this with 2022-12-21: The problem appears to be LMTX-specific. (I did not save 2022-12-15 for testing, but did not see the problem with that version.) -- Rik

Hi Rik, I can confirm that the regression only arises in LMTX and in current latest. With LMTX from 2022.12.15 18:12, the xtable is fine. It seems to be related to the replacement of \newdimen and \newcount with \newdimension and \newinteger (which Hans mentioned in https://mailman.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2022/107452.html). Just in case it helps, Pablo

Hi Rik,

It seems to be related to the replacement of \newdimen and \newcount with \newdimension and \newinteger (which Hans mentioned in https://mailman.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2022/107452.html). Indeed, one has to be careful with aliasing them (frozen values). There might be a few more places that need a fix.
