Andreas,

First, type:

texexec --make --alone

and see what happens. Look in \localtexmf\miktex\fmt and check the dates of
cont-en.efmt. Look for a newly updated metafun.mem file. If there is one
there, move it to \localtexmf\miktex\mem.

On some systems texexec --make --alone will dumpt the format files into the
current directory. You must move them manually to the correct place:
\localtexmf\miktex\fmt for format files, \localtexmf\miktex\mem for the
metapost format files.

Don't forget to refresh the filename database and make sure Yap is closed
when you do so.
