`\{start, stop}MPpage`: MetaPost figure does not fit canvas(?) in resulting PDF file

Dear ConTeXt folks,


using the following example

        \starttext
        \startMPpage
        draw (0,0)--(10,10)--(15,5)--(20,10);
        draw (0,0)--(0,10)--(10,10)--(10,5)--(15,5)--(15,10)--(20,10) withcolor blue;
        \stopMPpage
        \stoptext

it looks like the bottom is not included in the resulting PDF file and
at the top there is too much room. (So it looks like the figure is moved
too far to the bottom.)

Using the examples from the Wiki [1] with circles works though.

I am using ConTeXt Standalone.

Thanks,

it has to do with the size and topskip interference .. somewhat bigger 
images work ok (hopefully fixed in next beta)
