Chances are, constructs are being used that are invalid in asciimode. But as far as I understand, it should be sufficient running it without asciimode just with the \ctxcatcodes snippet in place to test if that breaks something. > No time to investigate why, ATM. No problem. Thanks for checking.

I ran a few projects and it seems to work fine. But that's not what I'd call extensive testing. I think compiling the MetaPost manual would be a good test. But on my machine this fails even without the \ctxcatcode fix in place. Maybe someone else with more MetaPost-heavy workflows¹ can test this, too?
