Howdy,

In spite of having the .x86_64-darwin and .universal-darwin extensions those packages do NOT (at least at this time) contain real binary updates but rather configuration, documentation, etc.

You'll have to wait for a full update of TeX Live (and MacTeX) and then reinstall after that gets around.

I believe that there is hope to one day have binaries updated via tlmgr but it isn't there yet.

Good Luck,
