[XeTeX] ConTeXt problem after reinstalling TeX packages

Hi all,

Recently, I reinstalled gwTeX(2004 stable via i-installer), ConTeXt 
updates, and XeTeX.
xetex and xelatex are working fine.
Before the reinstallation, I was able to produce a context format 
file(cont-en.xfmt) that worked fine with XeTeX with the help of Mr. 
Lindsay.
However, I couldn't produce a cont-en,xfmt file even though I did the 
same thing as before.
When I issued the command "sudo texexec --xtx --make --alone en"(which 
worked fine before and produce cont-en.xfmt file), it waits some input 
after prompt *.
It seems to me that it waits for some file name. However, it issues 
error message whenever I input something(for example, just return key, 
cont-en, context, en, etc).

Is there any differences between former TeX distribution and current 
one which affects context or XeTeX?

Here is a log file.
