So you do not modify the sources but because of the bug you modify 200 jpgs. In any case, as I have written, I had not output problems with \externalfigure, but the rli generation needed many texexec calls to be completed and was too slow (even if only for the first time). Instead, I had no luck at all with pdfs inclusion.

Ok, works as an alias from terminal.
BTW a texetex command already exists, so I used xecontext
But Hraban, how do I then set up TeXShop?

I'd set the default typesetting command to 'command listed below' and
there to your newly designed command.
Does that work? (If I ever use TeXshop, then I run texexec in a
separate Terminal...)

Any hints? Make sure the xetex binary is indeed in /usr/local/texlive/2007/bin/i386-darwin or in /usr/texbin, and the XeConTeXt.engine is an executable file (type chmod 755 ~/Library/TeXShop/Engines/XeConTeXt.engine in Terminal.app) You can also remove the stand-alone slash after set path= in XeConTeXt.engine (it tells tcsh to add the root directory to the list of directories where executable files are looked for, and that's really both useless and dangerous).
