The docs run ok with the previous context version.

Check your metapost version. It should be upwards of 0.990,
if it is not, that is the problem.

Taco

My version of metapost is 0.990, which came with the standalone Context 
for MS Windows date 24-11-2006


Just fetch this one:

   https://foundry.supelec.fr/frs/?group_id=13&release_id=194

You can simply unzip and copy the binaries from the 
metapost-0.993-win32.zip over the ones from the distrib,
and run ctxtools --update to refresh the metafun format.

Best, Taco

Installed metapost 0.993 (reports as 0.992) and did the ctxtools --update, however at the end of the update I am getting
