I successfully used your procedure to include the graphic test.1
generated with mpost from the following metapost code:

-----

%test.mp
beginfig(1) 
  label.top(btex $-$ etex,(1,1)); 
endfig; 
end

-----

and including test.1 in the pdfelatex file included below:

-----

\documentclass{article}
\input supp-pdf

\begin{document}

\convertMPtoPDF{test.1}{1}{1}

\end{document}

-----

Fabrice's technique of stripping ^M characters from the test.1 graphic
also works with elatex + dvips and the following file:

-----

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\begin{document}

\includegraphics{sign.1}

\end{document}
