Meep stores anisotropic dielectrics internally via the structure::inveps 
data structure (which stores a 3x3 matrix of 1/epsilon at each point, or 
rather the relevant row of that matrix at each Yee point).  However, there 
is currently no interface to specify this manually (it is only used for 
the subpixel averaging).  You would have to add a function to structure:: 
to set it.
