Interestingly, the following log shows that this has worked lately.

This is MetaPost, version 1.211 (TeX Live 2010) (kpathsea version 6.0.0) 
(mem=mpost 2011.06.01)  22 JUN 2011 14:48
**g11.mp
(./g11.mp (../t11.mp [11] [12] [13] [21] [22] [23] [31] [32] [33] [1] 
[2] [3] )
  )
12 output files written: g11.1 .. g11.33

(sometimes it is quite useful to save all old files)


So what is different in metapost 1.504 ?
