Thanks, Mojca.
With .bash_profile now reading . /Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex/setuptex, I ran texexec --make --all successfully. But I still could not process a .tex file: the error message was
This is pdfTeX, Version 3.1415926-1.40.10 (Web2C 2009)
\write18 enabled.
(/Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex/texmf-context/web2c/natural.tcx)
kpathsea: Running mktexfmt cont-en.fmt
mktexfmt: No such file or directory
I can't find the format file `cont-en.fmt'!
TeXExec | runtime: 0.21928
So I removed texmf-osx-intel from /ConTeXtMinimals/tex/. re-ran texexec --make --all. The error message is now
texexec: Command not found.
