Hi!!
I have exactly the same problem (see problem with metapost). I'm happy that
i'm not alone ;-)
I searched for the string "-progname=mpost" in texmf and the only files that
contains it are :
texexec.ini and supp-mps.tex
in this last file, i tried to delete the line with "-prognam=mpost..."
without any result!
I don't anderstand where this message can come from!!
