Or wait until tonight as I do have an i-Package for it. Without readline
support, but that is not essential to the capabilities of asymptote
afaics.

Note that I have some but not all of the dependencies available. Asymptote
compiles and runs on my system, but stuff like using ghostscript and
mpeg2vidcodec is not compiled in and only requires a separate install of
the tool in question.

I am able to do this
- copy planes.asy from the examples to a writable location
- run "asy planes.asy"
- open planes.eps (which opens in Preview after being converted to PDF)

So, the basis system seems to work.

Uploading can be performed when I am back home.
