Context (MkIV) uses variables defined in texmfcnf.lua and not texmf.cnf.
You can copy the one that comes with texlive (should be in $TEXMF/web2c
directory) to $TEXMFHOME/web2c and edit it.
You can check the value of a variable using
mtxrun --expand-var OSFONTDIR
mtxrun --expand-path OSFONTDIR
mtxrun --resolve-path OSFONTDIR
