In the case of XeTeX: no, it's not normal. If you add
\loadmapfile[lm-ec.map] this solves the problem, but if I was on your
place, I would use \sometxt{COPYRIGHT} instead of btex COPYRIGHT etex.
\sometxt works nice.
Many thanks.

But that doesn't work in mkii then unless some other hacks are added.
(I know, mkii and mkiv are not compatible, but there are no obvious
limitations why they could not work in the same way.)
actually there are ...
in mkii btex/etex pipes to an external instance of tex and then converts
the dvi to mp code; so, there we have a mp picture that we can color as
such (color info done in the tex job is lost)
in mkiv btex/etex pipes to the current tex instance and mp never sees
the result, only dimensions, and as such there is nothing to color; if i
construct a more comples model for extensions i can make that work, but
i'd rather wait for mplib to be extended with multiple pre/postscripts
(is on the agenda but with low priority)
(no colorization of pictures with text in mkiv)
(In the particular case of gnuplot, I have no idea how to deal with
that situation without a bunch of extra work since it's not so simple
to convert some color from metapost variable into one that ConTeXt
accepts in \color[...]. I have \chardef\TeXtextcolormode\zerocount in
mkii, but I still consider it ugly.)
well, just define a color on the spot ..
{\definecolor[temp][specs]\color[temp]text}
In the case of XeTeX: no, it's not normal. If you add
\loadmapfile[lm-ec.map] this solves the problem, but if I was on your
place, I would use \sometxt{COPYRIGHT} instead of btex COPYRIGHT etex.
indeed (althouh in mkiv they are the same .. btex/etex is converted to
textext on the fly)

Loading map files has been removed from XeTeX a while ago. Maybe lm-ec
should be added back for such cases? (I remember some problems with
btex etex in past after map files have been removed, but I don't
remember solving anything at that time.)
