Example 1: my test file with your finder.
--------------------------------------------------------------
MPlib finder: mpost.mp -> d:/context/tex/texmf/metapost/base/mpost.mp
MPlib finder: mpost.map ->
MPlib finder: plain.mp -> d:/context/tex/texmf/metapost/base/plain.mp

--------------------------------------------------------------
found = ""
no mpost.mem, no mpost.log
Example 2: my test file with your finder and ("wb" not "w")
--------------------------------------------------------------
MPlib finder: mpost.mp -> d:/context/tex/texmf/metapost/base/mpost.mp
