The new release 1.50 now uses by default the OpenGL and GLUT frameworks, 
so you don't need freeglut and X11 any more.

Well, you still have to get all the dependencies first, gc, fftw3, gls, 
libsisegv, PIL, etc. Plus fix a little bug or two in the sources. If you 
want a one-step build, you can always use "fink install asymptote".
