My impression from reading installation directions for minimals is that when you open a shell, and if you have your .bash_profile configured, that setuptex will be sourced. That must set some sort of path while the current shell is active? Will that interfere with needing to suddenly latex a file?
AFAIK not if you issue latex from a different shell where setuptex hasn't been sourced. As for your broken MacTeX installation, did you customize it in any way before you updated ConTeXt via rsync? If not then the easiest road back to a working MacTeX setup might be reinstalling the MacTeX package from scratch and then placing the Minimals alongside ... Best wishes, Oliver
