Thanks.  For achival value in case anyone else searches the list for
this topic, here's the command line that works for me:

texexec --pdfarrange --paperformat=a5a4 --print=2UP p5.pdf

(2SIDE also works, and the --print= is needed)

I had been using the texexec man entry from an old Context (with tetex
3.0) which doesn't mention the --paperformat switch.

Is there a way to specify custom paper sizes or reductions for the
paperformat, for those of us in countries that use
non-sqrt(2)-aspect-ratio paper sizes?
