Forgot this one. With \write18 enabled, everything works fine now, but not 
without... \runMPgraphicsfalse (or at least not ..true) in cont-sys.tex is 
necessary, otherwise texexec assumes on-the-fly generation and does not 
call mp afterwards.
The problem is: With
texexec --automprun --pdf test
mp is called after the tex runs, but no picture is produced (and possibly 
that's why no final tex run follows). This is the entire log file mpgraph.log:

**mpgraph
(mpgraph.mp )

However, compiling mpgraph.mp from the command line via
mp mpgraph
works fine!

I can't explain why mp is terminated prematurely when called by texexec. 
Even more strange, Hans might remember having told me about the --autmprun 
switch. Everything worked properly on my machine, perhaps one of the latest 
updates causes problems (but I can't tell which one, if so, for I didn't 
use mp since then)?

That's all... Greetings,

Eckhart
