The placement of the pages is defined \pusharrangedpageTHREESIDE, the  
values
above mean:

• number of columns: 3
• number of rows: 1
• total number of pages: 6 (ConTeXt collects 6 pages and arrange them  
before
   they are written to the pdf file but in Willi's code 3 had been  
enough)
• number of crop marks in x direction: 4 (columns + 1)
• number of crop mark in y direction: 2 (rows + 1)

The page order in a brochure is 5|6|1 and 2|3|4.
