* Metafun error

Just got back into Metafun. I used the example program from page 5 of
the manual:
------------------------------------------
\setupcolors[state=start]
\starttext
\startuseMPgraphic{dummy}
fill fullcircle scaled 5cm withcolor red;
\stopuseMPgraphic
\useMPgraphic{dummy}
\stoptext
------------------------------------------
When I run 

texexec test.tex I get:
-----------------------------
This is MetaPost, Version 0.641 (Web2C 7.3.7x)
(test-mpgraph.mp
>> spotcolors
>> true
! Equation cannot be performed (numeric=boolean).
<to be read again>
                   ;
l.23 spotcolors := true ;
---------------------------
on the second pass. 

If I eliminate the red color it still doesn't work.

The file test-mpgraph.mp contains these lines which look ok:

cmykcolors := true ;
spotcolors := true ;
color OverlayColor, OverlayLineColor ;

If I just generate the graphic with

texexec --mptex test.tex
that works OK.
Any ideas?

Hello!

Today I wanted to use an older tex file…. I get the same error as in the following test.

\startuniqueMPgraphic{test}

	path p;
	p := fullcircle scaled 5cm;
	draw p;
	label.bot(textext("Centre"), center p);
	
\stopuniqueMPgraphic

\starttext
\startTEXpage
    \useMPgraphic{test} 
\stopTEXpage
\stoptext


The error message is:

Argument of \meta_start_environment has an extra }

<inserted text> 
\par 
<to be read again> 
}
\meta_handle_unique_graphic ...ocess_graphic {#3}}
                                                  \setxvalue {\??mpgraphic \...
\meta_use_graphic ...]}\getvalue {\??mpgraphic #1}
                                                  \empty \meta_end_graphic_g...
<to be read again> 
 
l.288     \useMPgraphic{test}

This error occurs as well with version ConTeXt  ver: 2014.08.29 20:57 as with the latest beta ConTeXt  ver: 2014.09.26 11:42.


Am I missing something?

Kind regards

Willi
