Input file name containing full stop "."

Dear list, I am using ConTeXt LMTX Version 2020.09.05 21:18 with an input file named, e.g., "test.test.tex". When compiling, ConTeXt generates files "test.log", "test.tua", "test.pdf". ConTeXt MKIV used to produce files "test.test.log", "test.test.tua", "test.test.pdf". Is there a way for ConTeXt LMTX to process input files that contain full stops consistently? I am aware of the "--result=..." option, but what about the "...tua", "...log" and synctex files? This is a serious problem when running multiple compilations in parallel, e.g., on "test.a.tex" and "test.b.tex", because both processes use the same "test.tua" file. Cheers, Christoph

Same issue here. (BTW: That's the main reason I'm still on MkIV.) https://mailman.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2020/098260.html Marco
