I'm unable to try this out both because my phone is too small and
because I don't have sufficient internal memory. Maybe I could borrow
a tablet and check.

Just curious: how did you install this and which binaries were
fetched? Did you use first-setup.sh that fetched linux-armel? Honestly
I'm completely amazed that it worked at all without any additional
work.

If you installed "texlive-metapost", that probably put the metapost
binary in a different location anyway and it might have problems
communicating with ConTeXt. If you are able to install packages from
debian, you could try "texlive-context" and see whether that one
works.
