Subject: btex and DeclareGraphicsRule question

Why does stmt, label(btex Au dessus etex, (0,0));
fail when using stmt, \DeclareGraphicsRule{*}{mps}{*}{}
but works with stmt, \DeclareGraphicsRule{*}{eps}{*}{}
I am running texlive/2010.
Here is the error msg I get when using mps.
>/usr/local/texlive/2010/bin/i386-linux/mpost xtest.mp
This is MetaPost, version 1.211 (TeX Live 2010) (kpathsea version 6.0.0)
(./xtest.mpfatal: Command failed: etex --parse-first-line

\savebox{\dotprodcircle}{\includegraphics{dotprod.1}}
\newcommand{\dotprod}{\mathbin{\raisebox{.5\heightofcdot}{
\makebox[\widthofcdot]{$\smash{\usebox{\dotprodcircle}}$}}}}}
Alternatively if I use stmt, \DeclareGraphicsRule{*}{mps}{*}{}
and comment out all the lines in xstyle.sty no error is generated
when mpost is run.
I don't understand what in xstyle.sty can be having an affect on
\DeclareGraphicsRule{*}{mps}{*}{}.
Can anyone provide any helpful information?
My preference is to use mps and not eps.
