Yes (texexec works perfectly without Metafun)
I had a problem with multiple versions wich I'v not yet solved.

If I am only with the texlive version,
I can do the
	 texexec --make --alone --all en nl uk metafun mptopdf
(in /usr/local/pack/tex/texlive/texmf-var/web2c)
And all seems ok.
But I don't get basic Metafun exemple to work.

So, for now, T'll stay with the (partialy) working texlive distrib,
(I can do LaTeX, ConTexT and Metapost :-)
but I should think to change my full latex organisation to be able
to use my own context distribution, but it should not interfere
with the working latex distrib.
I could adopt the 70 Moctet standolone context distrib for
osx + linux if I can use it near the LaTeX standard distribution.

So, thank you very much for your help, but I'll have to
try again later,
