> Search for the stale cont-en.fmt and delete it.

Right -- most likely produced by fmtutil before you commented out the
automatic regeneration of context formats.  Same problem happens with
other Unix installations, e.g. I got bit a few times on Debian and
Ubuntu.  Here's one way to find the cont-en.fmt that you are using:

  $ kpsewhich -engine=pdfetex cont-en.fmt
  /home/sanjoy/.texmf-var/web2c/pdfetex/cont-en.fmt

(when pdfetex finishes turning into pdftex, as in the latest pdftex
releases, the engine line should I guess change to pdftex)

Then you can look at it's date and make sure it's the one you just
generated.

kpsewhere does a more general tex path search, which looks in each
TEXMF tree (kpsewhich tells you only the first one it finds):

  $ kpsewhere -engine=pdfetex cont-en.fmt
  /home/sanjoy/.texmf-var/web2c/pdfetex/cont-en.fmt

-Sanjoy
