Hi Thomas, Mojca and Andreas,

After playing with several options as either of you suggested, I ended up with 
the following setups which solve partially the misbehaviour of SyncTeX in mkiv. 
The solution works for with TeXShop on Mac OS X 10.10.2 and the latest 
standalone beta of ConTeXt.

1) I have in a file named mkiv.engine (which sits in the folder ) the following 
lines:

        #!/bin/bash

        export PATH=/Volumes/OK/context-minimal/tex/texmf-osx-64/bin:$PATH
        context --autogenerate "$1" —purgeall

2) As one may see I do not use the option —synctex in the above context call, 
since it doesn’t work correctly (beware the — shown is actually two hyphens 
{-}{-}…).

3) In the TeXShop Preferences, in the Typesetting pane, I have checked the 
radio button next to SyncTex (Tex ≥ 2010) as one may see on the attached screen 
capture.
For now the syncing seems to work essentially fine (although it is not as 
precise as when using Plain TeX, or LaTeX, but probably this might be expected 
beacuse mkiv is more complex).

I checked the context runner, maybe the next beta works better (i get a zip with --synctex=zipped) but i have no clue if something useful is in there (useability also depends on how the content is placed / generated and there not always a 1-1 relation between this (and i have to time or motivation to cook up a better alternative that suits context better).
