You get an error that some pstrick file is missing. Locate that file in the texlive directory and copy it to the current directory. 2. Repeat until you get an error that \ifx! is not a valid control sequence. 3. Run `grep ifx! *.tex` and change all the "\ifx!#1" to "\ifx !#1". 4. Then you get an error that colo-rgb is missing. Copy colo-rgb.mkii to the current directory as colo-rgb.tex. 5. Then you get a error message the some .pro file is missing. Find that file from the texlive directory and copy it to the current directory. Repeat until all errors are resolved. Finally you'll get the correct output. So it seems that if pstricks is added back to the minimals (so that errors in step 1 and 5 don't happen), then it should be straightforward to get it to work with context. (Just load the file with the correct catcode regime, so that ! is a other character, and the error in step 2-3 will not happen). THe error in step 3 is easy to fix by editing m-pstricks.
