So while I am happy to test what you say and provide feedback, please don’t get trapped into dealing with me about a problem that will eventually go away anyway. (My installation does still work, after all-- well, except for some unresolved problems with multi-page tables, but that is another thread.)

1. Check if you have either executed "source setuptex" (. setuptex) or
set the path explicitely
2. Please check the contents of "/path/to/your/context/tex" by typing
    ls /path/to/your/context/tex
    ls /path/to/your/context/tex/texmf-osx-64/bin
3. What does
    echo $PATH
say (after making sure that . setuptex is executed)?
