 I updated pstoedit, and it functions as expected.
 
 This is not a MetaPost question but rather a ConTeXt question:  How do I use 
 Arev Bold (Sans) in ConTeXt?

Use the DejaVu fonts which are like Arev Sans a extended version of Bitsream 
Vera.

\setupbodyfont[dejavu]

\starttext

\input knuth

\ss\input knuth

\startformula
c^2 = a^2 + b^2
\stopformula

\stoptext

Re: [NTG-context] parenthesis in Arabic text

 Greetings,
 
 I'm trying to typeset an Arabic text, but I have a problem with parenthesis in
 footnotes. The following example:
 
\usemodule[simplefonts]
 
\setmainfont[amiri][features=arabic,range=arabic]
\setupdirections[bidi=global]
\setupalign[righttoleft]
 
\def\text{(ب)}
 
\startdocument
\text\footnote{\text}.
\stopdocument
 
 gives the correct order in the text but the parenthesis are not adapted in the
 footnote.
 
 So in the text I get: (ب)
 And in the footnote: )ب(.

You have to set the bidi settings again for the footnotes because
the notes mechanism resets many of these setups.

\startsetups[note:footnote]
  \setupdirections[bidi=global]
\stopsetups

\setupnote[footnote][setups=note:footnote] % align=righttoleft
