not surprising.  pmx only made it to tex live when bob tennent sorted
out the tangled mess that was pmx on ctan and wima; so pmx is in current
tex live 2012.  mactex 2010 was based on texlive 2010, so predates pmx
in mactex by 2 years.

i'm no mac expert, so i fear i can't help.  (i installed mactex 2012 on
my laptop, for tex-ing while on the move, but i do *nothing* else with
it, not even update -- so it too has no pmx.)

speaking from my un*x experience, i would put pmx in the directory
you're working in.

however, bob's suggestion to upgrade to current mactex is the "proper"
way to go ... will lead to fewest hassles down the road.  (and then
update it with tlmgr -- i don't think pmx is in the original base
system.)
