For

beginfig(1);
save u;
u:=1cm;
draw (-1,-1)*u--(-10,10)*u--(10,10)*u--cycle withcolor (87, 1mm, -.5bp);
clip currentpicture to (-10,-10)*u--(-10,0)*u--(10,0)*u--(10,-10)*u--cycle;
endfig;
end

MetaPost 0.641 and 2.00 give exactly the same bounding box:
%%BoundingBox: -284 -29 284 0

So I think that it is not a bug but a feature.

Best,
Akira
