Thanks again, Hans.
I believe Hans Hagen said this around Sun, 9 Feb 2003:

Now the key definition is:
\appendtoks
% @# is X_ or Y_; $ is Gxcvlin_ or Gycvlin_; l and h are numeric or string
% It would not be OK to set (@#low,@#high) to a pair expression because
$ might
% try to rescale @#low when evaluating the right-hand side for @#high.
vardef Gsetr_@\#(suffix $)(expr l, h) =
Gclbnds_@\# ;
if @\#ctyp>0 :
@\#low = if abs @\#ctyp<>log: $ fi Mlog_Str l ;
@\#high = if abs @\#ctyp<>log: $ fi Mlog_Str h ;
else :
-@\#high = if abs @\#ctyp<>log: $ fi Mlog_Str l ;
-@\#low = if abs @\#ctyp<>log: $ fi Mlog_Str h ;
fi
enddef ;
\to \MPinitializations
Which works on at least one machine. The other one where I'm rebuilding
my tex installation (long story) with the new tetex binaries is still
coming up with blank MPpages, but I'm 95% sure that's a different issue.

Right. Thanks for clarifying it and reminding me where the code stands.
