Works in mkiv, but in mkii I get an error with

\starttext
\startMPcode
    vardef foo = draw (0mm,0mm)--(10mm,10mm); enddef;
    foo;

    vardef xy@# = (@#,@#) enddef ;
    draw xy0mm -- xy10mm;
\stopMPcode
\stoptext

! Illegal parameter number in definition of \@MPG@@@.
<to be read again>

vardef xy@## .m,10mm); enddef;
draw ...                                          = (@##,@##) enddef ;
