Usually running
     (for the whole system)
     sudo fmtutil-sys --all
or
     fmtutil-sys --all
or
     texexec --make en
should help. If not, try to figure out where an additional copy of
cont-en.fmt resides, delete it and run any of commands above.
You don't need to reinstall anything.
Thank you very much. I did the following:

1. Deleted

/localhost/texlive/2010/texmf-var/web2c/xetex/cont-en.fmt
./localhost/texlive/2010/texmf-var/web2c/pdftex/cont-en.fmt

2. Ran

fmtutil-sys --all

3. Ran

texexec --make en

All three steps were needed to get both texexec and context working 
under TeXLive 2010, and now they do. I have verified by looking at 
generator field of the PDF file properties.

Wanting to have both context minimals and TeXLive 2010--modified only by
tlmgr--coexisting, I tried to install the minimals in a directory called
~/local-context
using the following commands:
rsync -av rsync://contextgarden.net/minimals/current/context/current/ \
  ~/local-context/
rsync -av --include 'mtxrun' --include 'luatools' \
  rsync://contextgarden.net/minimals/current/bin/context/linux-64/bin/ \
        ~/local-context/bin/
No, no, no. You could go to http://minimals.contextgarden.net/setup/
and follow those instructions.
Thanks for the link.

You can do:
   cd ~/local-context
   rsync -ptv rsync://contextgarden.net/minimals/setup/first-setup.sh .
   ./first-setup.sh
and then use
     . ~/local-context/tex/setuptex
when you want to switch. The method you use won't "simply work" for
various reasons.
...
If there is a complete error-free algorithm/script in future for making
TeXLive 2010 and the context-minmals coexist independently I will appreciate
knowing about it.
The are able to coexist independently as long as you don't clone the
instructions from wiki (now already removed fro wiki).
...
Meanwhile, it looks like I need to reinstall TeXLive 2010 afresh.
No, you just need to remake the formats.

Thank you.
