When I run this example with mpost amd mptopdf, everything is fine. But running it with context mkiv, using its mplib I get an error.
Yes, you would. This is the text from http://wiki.contextgarden.net/MkIV_Differences about metapost in context mkiv: All inline metapost code in your document is executed in a large continuous run. This means there are two things you have to watch out for: You should load the MP packages you need in \startMPinclusions..\stopMPinclusions; not inside a graphic. You have to make sure that you do not re-state equations that were already solved in a previous graphic. These are in fact the exact same rules that you have to adhere to in mkii if \runMPgraphicsfalse is active. Best wishes, Taco
