Did you read the sequence "2 0 0 9"? It tells you that you are *not* using the
updated xelatex.

Use the updated version of TeX Live 2011!

Presumingly setting PATH. The environment variable $PATH tells the shell
interpreter where to look for executables. Seems it looks for executables from
two years ago, which are organised in /usr/local/texlive/2009/bin/<some
architecture>/, while the recent ones are in /usr/local/texlive/2011/bin<some
architecture>/.
Could be you also have some other TeX related environment variables set which
cause the failure. The commands env or printenv show all environment variables
and the values they are set to. The command
env | egrep 'TEX|MF'
should filter only the relevant ones.
For MacTeX users a TeX Distributions Preference Pane exists to set $PATH.
