Sorry, I made a typo:
$ locate texmf.cnf
/etc/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf # real; make a backup!
/etc/texmf/texmf.d/00texmf.cnf
-- forget it - just a template, it'll overwrite your when
updating
/usr/share/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf-- link
/var/lib/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf -- link
I just compiled and installed pdftex 1.30.4 without problems.
But to be safe, in the Build script include "--prefix=/usr" in the
config options if you have the main tree in /usr/share/texmf.
You'll also have a ~/.texmf-var - this is where I put the ConTeXt files.
As in the wiki, you have to run fmtutil-sys --refresh afterwards
Luck

I have built pdftex-1.30.3 following the wiki on a Gentoo box - which is
what I use. After some try and swear, changing this line in the Build
script of the pdftex dist, made it work:
$ diff Build Build~
69c69
< (cd texk/web2c; $MAKE texmf=${TEXMF_PATH:-/usr/share/texmf} pdftex pdfetex)
|| exit 1
---
> (cd texk/web2c; $MAKE pdftex pdfetex || exit 1) || exit 1
When it compiles, just copy pdfetex to /usr/bin, and the *.fmt and
*.pool to /var/lib/texmf/web2c - this is where formats live.
The only texmf.cnf lives in /etc/texmf.cnf; other are symlinks to it.

I just choose it over LaTeX for his integrated model seemed better to me, and never regretted. It have been a rough step learning curve, though. Til now I used to typeset/illustrate books with DSP tools and my aim is use ConTeXT/MetaFun to do it. Right now I'm converting html based documentation through the xml toolchain (texml), but most of the time I fight with some obscure parameter trying to put things where I want. Integrating MetaPost is definitely a plus for a designer.
