Do you understand that you don't get error parsing if you use
`TeX-run-command' instead of `TeX-run-TeX'?  With the simple setup of
the command shown above you also defeat AUCTeX's functionalities for
switching the engine used by ConTeXt, the language interface and
input/output correlation.

Add the entry to the front of `TeX-command-list' and not to the back.
