In fact, when I used makecirc.mp, I just commented out the following few lines
at the head of the file:
%input latex;
%
% Commands definitions to do the labeled easier %
%
%LaTeXsetup:=LaTeXsetup &
%"\def\ohm{\ensuremath{\,\Omega}}" &
%"\def\kohm{\,k\ensuremath{\Omega}}" &
%"\def\modarg#1#2{\setbox0=\hbox{$\mkern-1mu/#2^\circ$}" &
%"\dp0=.21ex $#1\underline{\box0}$}";
and everything worked (the macros use label() for text).

Thank you,
I didn't understand the magic behind that but it's works.
Another question: there is a library to draw electrics circuit
alternative to makecirc but more context/metafun friendly?

I searched ctab for that library and it has soem hard wired latex stuff
in it. You can make latex.mp empty (to play safe),
Load the file with:
\startMPinclusions
string LaTeXsetup ; LaTeXsetup := "";
input "makecirc.mp";
vardef latex(expr t) = textext(t) enddef ;
\stopMPinclusions
I didn't look into the details but yoru example runs then.
