\startMPinclusions[+]

\startMPinclusions[+]

[Hans van der Meer]

In mkii this could be used to add material to metapost runs:
\startMPinclusions[+]
.....
\stopMPInclusions

This stopped working in the latest stable version I have seen:
ConTeXt  ver: 2008.10.31 13:58 MKIV  fmt: 2008.12.17

Is it already fixed? Or can a quick patch be given?

In january 2006 Hans Hagen wrote to me about the following he promised  
to include. Could it be this has been forgotten in the mean time?

Sorry, I have mixed up inclusions and extensions. The code with [+]
works OK here with both 2008.07.31 and 2009.03.17 version of ConTeXt.

Re: \startMPinclusions[+]

Could it be the version of LuaTeX why this fails with me? I am using:
"This is LuaTeX, Version snapshot-0.30.3-2008112814, build"

I don't know if LuaTeX version matters, but MPinclusions were broken
in mkiv two weeks ago anyway, so you might need to upgrade ConTeXt as
well. (Just do not ask to which version. MKIV is in transition at the
moment, so you might expect tiny problems.)
