Hello,
I am using the default implementation of TeXLive 2010 which provides
MetaPost 1.211
on Windows 7. I'm getting a fatal error on texnum.mp on the simplest
possible use
of graph. Here is the simplest possible test case that shows the error:
input graph
end
Here is the error message I get.

Is there something I need to configure in TeXLive or my .mp file in
order to get this to work? Or is there some other debugging I can do to
determine
how to resolve this problem?
