I use MacTeX (but really only TeX Live as I seldom use the GUI tools in MacTeX) for LaTeX and ConTeXt when it works; when ConTeXt in MacTeX breaks I switch to Minimals. I use a command-line tool, environment modules (experimental tcl version from <http://modules.sourceforge.net/>), to switch between TeX distros. This adjusts the environment in the current shell. -- George N.
