ok, i did that:
bwv988 metapost/context# kpsewhich cont-en.efmt
/var/lib/texmf/web2c/cont-en.efmt
bwv988 metapost/context# mv metafun.mem /var/lib/texmf/web2c/cont-en.efmt

but, my test doesn't work:

----------------------------------------------------------------------
bwv988 0/266 ~/play_context> more play.tex

Hello world.
\stoptext
bwv988 0/265 ~/play_context> texexec play

 TeXExec 3.0 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2002

            executable : pdfetex
                format : cont-en
             inputfile : play
