Basically, you moved it to TeX to do the coloring,
which is ok.

Now, "draw thelabel(btex RED etex, (0,0)) scaled 2;" works.  
In the same manner , I think,
"withcolor" should work.    At least this is my
understanding of the manual.  But instead it is
silently ignored.  So my question is whether it 
is a bug or not. 

This may not be a context's  issue but a metapost's itself.

Thanks,  Eythan
