As I only use one transparency method anyway I could also fix this by passing a 
numeric instead of a pair and use the standard withtransparency (I don’t like 
overriding a standard MetaFun method, one never knows what might break in 
future updates).

vardef Foo( expr w, h, fillColor, fillTransparency) =
  show "FOO:", w, h, fillColor, fillTransparency;
  save pic; picture pic;
  save circ; path circ;
  circ := (fullcircle xyscaled (h,h));
  pic := image (
    fill (circ shifted (w-h/2,-h/2)) withcolor fillColor withtransparency 
(1,fillTransparency);
  );
  pic
enddef;

picture pic;
pic := Foo( 150, 50, (0.686,1.000,1.000), 0.5);
draw pic;
\stopMPpage
\stoptext
