You could also try altering the Asymptote Portfile to not depend on
texlive. I'm not sure how extensive these changes would have to be.
It's possible to get some ports to use your existing MacTeX install by
adding /usr/texbin to your binpath in /opt/local/etc/macports.conf
Unfortunately, asymptote is not one of those ports. It needs to install
some tex style files, and those will only be installed for the MacPorts
texlive installlation. (It doesn't seem like a good idea to try to
install them for a non-MacPorts install outside of $PREFIX...)
I was able to uninstall the MacPorts ports of both texlive and asymptote
without apparently any damage to the standard MacTeX configuration of
TeXLive 2011.
That left all the asymptote TeX support files in place in the latter.
Then I was able to build asymptote from downloaded source, following
instructions at http://www.tug.org/texlive/build.html#asymptote.
