No, I export TEXMFCACHE in my .profile, because I want the cache to be 
inside my home folder. After running setuptex, ConTeXt minimals uses 
that rather than the path specified in texmfcnf.lua. Since now I know 
that luatex-cache can be shared, for me this is perfectly fine. I just 
had to adjust the TeXShop engines (I am on Mac OS X) by explicitly 
setting TEXMFCACHE for XeTeX and MKII, besides MKIV.

So, if I get it right, the value in texmfcnf.lua is used unless 
TEXMFCACHE is set.
