Hi again,
Unfortunately the problem seems to come from the junction
of XeTeX + ConTeXt... Indeed the following minimal example
%% begin dalyoung.tex
\setupcolors[state=start]
\starttext
\startMPcode
fill fullcircle scaled 3cm withcolor red;
fill fullcircle scaled 3cm shifted (2cm,1cm) withcolor
transparent(1,0.5,green);
\stopMPcode
\stoptext
%% end dalyoung.tex
works fine with ConTeXt alone, but generates an error while typeset
with XeConTeXt.
If a file named dalyoung.tuo is present then XeConTeXt stops at the
line where \starttext is present. Otherwise I get the same error
message as Dalyoung Jeong, that is
%% begin error message
This is MetaPost, Version 0.901 (Web2C 7.5.5)

context_tool: input mp-tool;
?
%% end error message
I hope that this would help to locate the error (or a bug).
Best regards: OK
