Unless you want to wait for Dick to come back from WWDC and upload a
new version of MacTeX, you need slightly different settings now (after
doing some recent cleanup of ConTeXt):

return {
    content = {
        variables = {
            TEXMFHOME  = "~/Library/texmf",
            TEXMFVAR = "~/Library/texlive/2011/texmf-var",
            TEXMFCONFIG = "~/Library/texlive/2011/texmf-config",
        }
    }
}

(This is now patched in install-tl.)

Also, I guess that you need to reinstall ConTeXt, so that it will
regenerate the filename database.
