I compiled metapost (1.110) with the same command, replaced the old TL
binary, called mktexfmt mpost and run make inside
svn://scm.foundry.supelec.fr/svn/metapost/tags/1.101/manual. But I
didn't get any compilation errors. Some older copies of metapost
complained about
LaTeX Warning: File `mpgraph-1.mps' not found on input line 156.
! Package graphics Error: File `mpgraph-1.mps' not found.
See the graphics package documentation for explanation.
Type H <return> for immediate help.
...
l.156 $$ \includegraphics{mpgraph-1.mps}
$$
but the latest checkout was OK. However, I'm on Tiger.
