This seems to be a very common problem. Isn't it possible
to integrate a check into the metafun code so that a more
helpful error message is produced in case of a format
version mismatch?

looks like an old version of metafun with a new version of context; make 
sure that the metafun macros are in metapost/context/base (and not in one

Presuming that the line is in your file as written I think you need a line
earlier which says
 boolean local_multi_par_area;

[NTG-context] Integrating Metapost

2003-10-30 Thread Lutz Haseloff
Hallo all,

Running texexec on a ConTeXt-file with integrated
METAPOST-Graphics METAPOST complains about:
---
 local_multi_par_area
 false
! Equation cannot be performed (numeric=boolean).

   ;
l.218 local_multi_par_area:=false;
?
---
and stops.

There are no duplicate ConTeXt mp-files on this
machine.
The same file works on another Computer.

What can the error be?

Greetings Lutz
