I believe the source of this is in meta-ini.mkiv:
\startMPinitializations
    PageFraction:=\lastpage>1:(\realfolio-1)/(\lastpage-1)else:1fi;
\stopMPinitializations

Should this not be:
\startMPinitializations
    PageFraction:=if \lastpage>1:(\realfolio-1)/(\lastpage-1)else:1fi;
\stopMPinitializations

O.K. just rebuilt formats!

Works.

Attaching new meta-ini.mkiv

Thanx!
