mtxrun --generate

context runs quite independent of the texlive infrastructure; mtxrun is 
its own stub for instance and has its own file database; so, if 
'context' does not run, it's because either mtxrun (without suffix on 
unix) is not updated

if you see kpse being initialized (or any kpse related program being 
run) you're in trouble
