Below is the output when I compile a file with the following 3 lines:

\starttext
Hello world
\stoptext

I am using the latest TeX and ConTeXt from Gerben Wierda's i-Installer.  
I am looking into the MacOSX TeX mailing list archives for any hints  
too. Thanks for any help and the pointer.

I had the same problem. Here is my (possibly incorrect) interpretation,  
and how to fix it:

You have updated to the most recent context without updating texexec  
(and pssoibly related packages). To do so,
uninstall your entire TeX tree (grin) by either doing this in  
i-Installerm or by removing the i-Packages directory
from your home directory. Otherwise, i-Installer will always default to  
your older installation setup.
You might also want to erase /usr/local/teTeX.

Then start again i-installer (get the most recent), and set it up to  
expert mode, which lets you select the
most recent TeX installation. Follow the instructions at  
http://www.uoregon.edu/~koch/texshop/texshop.html
to select the packages, and don't forget to install ConTeXt.

I suggest keeping an old installation on another boot partition or  
backup drive, I can't guarantee
that certain things will not look different.

pretty old, that one; do you have some old texexec someplace?

(maybe you use an old tree and new tree mixed (the changed scripts path 
problem) or don't use a stub to call texexec but have a copy of texexec 
being the stub)
