Hi,
In MKIV/mplib, dotlabel does not draw a dot. Here is a test file. I am 
using ConTeXt  ver: 2008.07.31 16:30 MKIV  fmt: 2008.8.2 and MetaPost, 
version 1.085 (kpathsea version 3.5.5). I don't know how to find the 
version of mplib being used.
\starttext
\startMPpage
   dotlabel.bot(\sometxt{(0,0)}, origin) ;
\stopMPpage
\stoptext
hm, this is the border case ... so we need

local function flushnormalpath(path, t, open)
     local pth, ith
     for i=1,#path do
	...
     end
     if not open then
	...
     elseif #path == 1 then
         -- special case .. draw point
         local one = path[1]
         t[#t+1] = format("%f %f l",one.x_coord,one.y_coord)
     end
     return t
end

i hope this does not interfere (i.e. needs a more complex check)
