The fix is still in the metapost repository. I'll release a
new luatex beta tomorrow morning (with the fix).

Best wishes,
Taco

Since I need this fix pretty soon, I thought a svn checkout and build might 
be a good idea. Getting luatex 0.62 beta compiled and running wasn't a 
problem, but the error with metapost still persists. ("This is LuaTeX, 
Version beta-0.62.0-2010082217 (rev 3815)")

Is there anything else I would need to get the fix in? Is it in a branch or 
is metapost even a lib on it's own? (It seemed to be statically linked, but 
I'm not completely sure if I missed something, so I better ask - which I 
hereby do.)

Thanks in advance!
Andreas.

Thanks for investigating and fixing it so fast! (well, I hope; we will see
;-))

Best Regards,
Andreas.

Any ideas what goes wrong here?


Probably a metapost bug, I'll check.


There were actually two metapost bugs from that single example.
Next week's luatex beta will have a fix for both.

Bug 1:

  show "45">"["; % 1.502 gives true, should be false

Bug 2:

  pair a[]b;
  a1b = (50,50);
  pair a[]c;
  show known a1b; % 1.502 gives false, should be true

Best wishes,
Taco
