I have a problem with context. In fact the problem also was present with
the previous version. I use it only to do a pdfnup with the command

texexec --pdfcombine.

The previous version complained about the command cont-en not found. The
new version doesn't do that, apparently because the cont-en format is
processed in a different way. However the cont-en format wasn't generated
properly, because of the spanish language being selected. See the log file
below. I don't need spanish in context, but I do need it in LaTeX, and
therefore it is also enabled in context. I am going to try to regenerate
cont-en without spanish.

Extract from cont-en.log:
