After the latest update to context/base/supp-pdf.tex in texlive, the
mptopdf format will no longer build.

module that is loaded after supp-pdf still requires this (and doesn't
check or load it).
A simple patch to allow mptopdf.fmt to build would be:

But Hans may wish to do something entirely different with it.
