I also threw in a fmtutil --all followed by another texhash.

Now I am error free. But the  following test.tex file will create the 
graphic file but will not place it on the output pdf file. I suspect I
must tweak something somewhere but I am not sure where:
-----------------------------------------------------
\setuppapersize[letter][letter]
\setupoutput[pdftex]
\setupcolors[state=start]
\starttext
\startuseMPgraphic{dummy}
fill fullcircle scaled 5cm withcolor red;
\stopuseMPgraphic
\useMPgraphic{dummy}

The above is a graphic.

\vfil
\stoptext
-----------------------------------------------------

The resultant test-mpgraph.1 (PostScript) file  has a gray
quarter-circle in the lower left corner. The test.pdf file has the
text sentence but no graphic at all.

I can create the test circle successfully from metapost ignoring
Context altogether. But the above steps fail somewhere.
