I'm almost sure that the reason are missing lines describing those fonts in pdftex.map. It might be that your example would work fine with TeX Live or MikTeX out of the box. I have never used metauml and I'm not sure what it does. Another reason could be lack of fonts that you desire to use (but txfonts are present). Does including "original-youngryu-tx.map" with command fontmapfile (or command fontmapline) help you to get rtxss working? If not, can you please send a minimal example? ConTeXt uses different mechanisms to get the fonts inside metapost code working, but metauml is most certainly not aware of any of those, so it cannot take any advantage of that.
