Hm. Are you sure you have mp-tool.mp in the right location? 

For the moment, change this at the and of core-mps.tex: 

\appendtoks
  if not known _data_prefix_ :
    string _data_prefix_ , _data_suffix_ ;
  fi ;
  _data_prefix_ := "\bufferprefix mpd-" ;
  _data_suffix_ := ".tmp" ;
\to \MPinitializations

or put the next line at the top of your file: 

\prependtoks
  if not known _data_prefix_ :
    string _data_prefix_ , _data_suffix_ ;
  fi ;
\to \MPinitializations

I'll add an additional safeguard to the next version. 

BTW, I uploaded a new version a few days ago. That one has (1) a date fix,
since I introduced a bug when I added the low level calendar macros, as
well as a better way to embed mp graphics in xforms (pdf), i.e. in first
quadrant. More precise in viewers.
