[OS X TeX] Contex & metafun problem

Hello people,

I installed  Mac TeX -2009 Distribution on a new iMAC.

when I try to run texexec on a Context file that  includes a metapost
program,
I receive no picture that is defined in metapost part.
In my linux installation it works.

What I can fing in log file is:

*runsystem(texmfstart texexec --batch --output=dvips --mpformat=metafun
--mptex --nomp --once obrazek-mpgraph)...disabled.*


Running this sequence manually and reruning the 1st texexec I receive what I
expect.

Is it a feature of Mac distribution or there is a mismatch in some
file/directory permissions? (mptopfd, ...)
Are there another installation steps needed after fresh MacTeX installation?


the test file is:

*\startuseMPgraphic{def}*
*...*
*
*
*\stopuseMPgraphic*
*
*
*\startuseMPgraphic{obr30}*
*\includeMPgraphic{def}*
*...*
*\stopuseMPgraphic*
*
*
*\starttext*
*
*
*test*
*\placefigure[here][fig1]{yyy} {\useMPgraphic{obr30}}*
*end of test*
*
*
*\stoptext*


Nice day,

Jindro
