which is an alias of

     /Library/TeX/texbin/context@ -> 
../../texmf-dist/scripts/context/stubs/unix/context

and texbin is

     /Library/TeX/texbin@ -> Distributions/Programs/texbin
     /Library/TeX/Distributions/Programs/texbin@ -> 
../.DefaultTeX/Contents/Programs/texbin
     /Library/TeX/Distributions/.DefaultTeX/Contents@ ->

The directory name luatex-cache suggests it's used for caching. I 
interpret the output like „something happens during the generation of 
the format file and therefore the file never gets generated“. I don't 
know much about the internals.

I don't really have any reason for using MacTeX over texlive; I was once 
told that this is the thing I want to use on a Mac when I was a student, 
and have used it ever since.
I could switch over and try texlive if nothing else helps, though I 
think it would be good to pin down the cause of this error and tell the 
MacTeX folks about it.

Regards,
Felix
