That's more or less what I'm doing right now; I was being curious about
the “metapost.process(etc)” function, especially concerning the first
argument: “mpx” -- what could be a valid format identifier besides
"metafun"? Why does it fail on the otherwise sound example from
mlib-ctx.mkiv? It's nothing urgent, just plain curiosity.
