All,

I've installed Miktex, the latest version. Then I installed Minimal Context following directions on: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/ConTeXt_Minimals

Namely:

Download and unzip context-setup-mswin.zip

Run first-setup.bat, go for a coffee. 

Ran the setuptex.bat as descibed. 

NOw I have this metapost file:

input mp-tool;

beginfig(1);

numeric u; 10u=4in;

drawdblarrow (-5u,0)--(5u,0);
drawdblarrow (0,-5u)--(0,5u);
label.rt(btex $x$ etex, (5u,0));
label.top(btex $\phi$ etex, (0,5u));

pair A, B, C;
A:=(0,0) scaled u;
B:=(5,5) scaled u;
C:=(5,0) scaled u;

drawdblarrow B--A--C;
draw anglebetween(B--A,C--A,btex $\theta$ etex);


endfig;

end.

When I compile it:

C:\temp>texmfstart texexec --mpgraphic jack.mp

I get the strangest result. See:

Bug?
