! Equation cannot be performed (numeric=boolean).
looks like an old version of metafun with a new version of context; make sure that the metafun macros are in metapost/context/base (and not in one of the parent directories) and regenerate the format (texexec --make --alone metafun)
This seems to be a very common problem. Isn't it possible to integrate a check into the metafun code so that a more helpful error message is produced in case of a format version mismatch?
