2) I can't make the example on page 236 of the MetaFun manual (the one
with a framed text with the Zapf (1) label). I use the following code:

 \startuseMPgraphic{FunnyFrame}
 picture p;
 numeric w, h, o;
 p:=textext.rt(\MPstring{FunnyFrame}) ;
 w:=OverlayWidth;
 h:=OverlayHeight;
 o:=BodyFontSize;
 p:=p shifted (2o,h-ypart center p);
 draw p;
 drawoptions (widhpen pencircle scaled 1pt);

  ^^^^^^^^^^^  withpen ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

 draw (2o,h)--(0,h)--(0,0)--(w,0)--(w,h)--(xpart urcorner p,h);
 draw boundingbox p;
 setbounds currentpicture to unitsquare xyscaled(w,h);
\stopuseMPgraphic

\defineoverlay[FunnyFrame][\useMPgraphic{FunnyFrame}]
\defineframedtext[FunnyText][frame=off,background=FunnyFrame,width=fit]

\def\StartFrame{\startFunnyText}
\def\StopFrame{\stopFunnyText}

\def\FrameTitle#1%
  {\setMPtext{FunnyFrame}{\hbox spread 1em{\hss\strut#1\hss}}}

\setMPtext{FunnyFrame}{}% Initiate.

Instead of the text in the label box I get the text "unknown". I type

\FrameTitle{Test}

\StartFrame
 This is just a test.
\StopFrame

this works ok here, when corrected for the error, so it looks like your mp installation is not working ok
