that test should go into the test repos

I've committed it to the contexttest repo as tex/context/base/supp-mis.tex/test-001.tex

By the way, in dvi mode the file fails unless "mpprocset:=0;" is put in the \startMPpositiongraphic. Here's the error msg:

$ texexec --dvi --nonstopmode tex/context/base/supp-mis.tex/test-001.tex // on "TeX run 2" ... [MP as EPS ./to-dvi-mpgraph.4000] [MP color conversion ./to-dvi-mpgraph.4000 !

Taco had diagnosed this as due to ConTeXt not handling the new mpost procsets (hence the mpprocset := 0;). Not sure why that lack doesn't hurt the run in pdf mode, but perhaps Taco or Hans understand the reson. The test file that I committed does not have the mpprocset:=0, so it can be used to test for mpprocset handling in dvi mode.

It is a different set of macros. The macros that are used in dvi mode do not convert to pdf, but only convert colorspaces to other colorspaces. I know what is causing it, just not how to fix. Best, Taco
