I've recently installed, via the new i-installer mechanism, teTeX,
ghostscript.
Sadly, now when building presentations in ConTeXt, mpost is crashing
with an address violation. When I manually mpost the file it doesn't
crash, but I see:
[localhost] % mpost mpgraph.mp
This is MetaPost, Version 0.641 (Web2C 7.3.7)
(mpgraph.mp
! Number is too large (8000).
l.2 mpgraph:=8000
I'm not totally metapost-professional, but I'm assuming there is a
configuration problem somewhere?

you need to run the metafun format;
the crash suprises me, esp when warningcheck := 0 ; the 8000 should be
pretty valid
