mtxrun:1741: attempt to index a nil value

["Henning Hraban Ramm" <hraban@fiee.net>]

For I had some problems with my installation I tried to start from
scratch. But I'm stuck with an error in mtxrun:

Welcome to Darwin!

/usr/local/ConTeXt/bin/mtxrun:1741: attempt to index a nil value


And that's it.

Line 1741 of mtxrun contains a popen command to execute a system
command; but even if I change that (e.g. printing the accessed
variable before), the error stays at that line, so the message is
probably wrong.

Please help?
