I use a Debian GNU/Linux system with TeX-Live 2007, so I run the script "build.linux" to compile the MetaPost source. This script creates a "native" directory containing all the necessary executables and there is no "mp.pool" anymore. When copying the executables to "texlive/2007/bin/i386-linux/" (or similar) one should remember to "chown root:staff *" 2) MetaPost programs starting with verbatimtex \documentclass{article} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{mathptm} \begin{document} etex; defaultfont := "cmr12"; defaultscale := 12pt /fontsize defaultfont; are now broken when using "export TEX=latex".

Nobre G. - http://burocracia.blogspot.com/ "The human species is entering a period of dramatic and potentially devastating change as the result of forces of our own creation that are now largely beyond our control. It is within our means, however, to shape a positive outcome if we choose to embrace the resulting crisis as an opportunity to lift ourselves to a new level of species maturity and potential."
