Thanks Hans.

"Joy" may be a bit strong, but I guess I can say I'm pleased.

I had no doubt there was *something* to deal with the problem, but knowing
that \nomarking is defunct (as opposed to it being a PEBKAC problem) is
welcome knowledge too.

(I have updated the wiki not once but three times now.  Just in case any
errant ConTeXt users find themselves at the \nomarking page.)
