metafun broken?

[Zdenek Wagner]

After fresh update of TL2023:
$ mpost metafun.mp
This is MetaPost, version 2.02 (TeX Live 2023) (kpathsea version 6.3.5)
(/usr/local/texlive/2023/texmf-dist/metapost/base/mpost.mp
(/usr/local/texlive/2023/texmf-dist/metapost/base/plain.mp
Preloading the plain mem file, version 1.005) )
(/usr/local/texlive/2023/texmf-dist/metapost/context/base/common/metafun.mp
! I can't open file `metafun.mpii'.
l.6     input metafun.mpii

Please type another input file name: ^C


With TL2022:
$ mpost metafun.mp
This is MetaPost, version 2.02 (TeX Live 2022) (kpathsea version 6.3.4)
(/usr/local/texlive/2022/texmf-dist/metapost/base/mpost.mp
(/usr/local/texlive/2022/texmf-dist/metapost/base/plain.mp
Preloading the plain mem file, version 1.005) )
(/usr/local/texlive/2022/texmf-dist/metapost/context/base/common/metafun.mp
(/usr/local/texlive/2022/texmf-dist/metapost/context/base/mpii/metafun.mpii
(/usr/local/texlive/2022/texmf-dist/metapost/context/base/mpii/mp-base.mpii
Preloading the plain mem file, version 1.004 for metafun ii
! Redundant equation.

... and many more redundant equations

TL2021: the same redundant equations
