What does mean the error message? Now, the message is somewhat confusing (i'll change it) and has to do with the fact that a figure file with the same name as the jobname is very dangerous, especially for some suffixes (tex, pdf), but even for mp, where a temp file with jobname. can be created, so to prevent any potential problem, context will not support figure names with the jobname. The second message is there because after disabling, the machinery still runs so that we get the normal missing figure.
