Indeed. 2 solutions:

- treat or save your arguments before calling setuptex, for example:
  ARG1="$1"
  ARG2="$2"
  shift $#
  source /opt/context/tex/setuptex

- or setuptex should be rather an executable, that prints out the
  environment to apply, then one would do something like this:
  eval `setuptex`
  (cleaner solution, but some work to do and all minimal-users must change
  their habits...)

Cheers, Peter
