Good luck, or as you say in Italy "in bocca al lupo!"…

YES! I did it step by step as you say above (mutatis mutandis, that is  
by replacing texmf-linux by texmf-osx-intel): and now I have an mkiv  
in the minimal tree that works fine: the file basic-test.tex results in:
	This file has been typeset on October 19, 2008 at 23:56, mkiv,  
ConTeXt version
	2008.10.17 10:41, LuaTeX revision 1, (LuaTeX date stamp 2008101818)
Many many thanks! Grazie mille…

A last question: it is really necessary to say (in the appropriate  
directory)
	. setuptex
	context --generate
	context --make
for each typesetting session? Or is this a temporary procedure?

I will try these later. In this way one may have various versions at  
the same time.

Best regards: OK
