Subject: Building ConTeXt format in teTeX and Mac OS X

Greetings-
Having a few weeeeee problems w/ getting ConTeXt built in my current
environment, and the symptoms are, to say the least, interesting.
Background-
1) MacOSX's distribution of teTeX comes with an older version of ConTeXt
installed, some time around April of last year i believe.
2) I needed some of the font support from the more recent distributions
(\usemodule[fnt-01], which isn't in the distribution that comes w/ the
current teTeX on MacOSX)
3) So, I d/l the latest (and beta) versions of ConTeXt. Do the usual
voodoo, unzip into the texmf world, etc (as per the install manual)
4) go to build the format using fmtutil-
5) With the beta distribution the format build fails at:
(/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf/tex/context/base/context.tex
! I can't find file `syst-pln.tex'.
l.34 \input syst-pln.tex
6) it -is- there.... in the release distribution I get the same only it
is at "\input spec-def.tex" which is also present and accounted for, vis:
[flip.skidmore.edu] % ls -l syst-pln.tex
-rw-r--r-- 1 root admin 17949 Nov 17 16:51 syst-pln.tex
Now, I see them the files there, alas, the format builder isn't seeing
them. Anyone have any experience with this? Tried all of the usual
mundane voodoo, invisible characters, commented out in context.tex prior
to those includes, etc...
Baffling... clues?
