It seems that somebody changed texmf.cnf, e.g. declaring here
something like:
TEX = context

or, worse, changed makempx script.
Anyway, tetex 2.0.2, as it is distributed is OK.

I've observed that some Linux distributions provide changed tetex
config files, not always in a happy way... 
I don't know how such situation could be cured, as packages are often
not signed. The notable example is still not updated tetex in 
the _current_ RedHat9.0. It is still tetex 1.0.7, but broken in many
parts.
