Of course.

Please put this very relevant information into the subject of the  
post. If you'd mentioned XeTeX on the asymptote mailing list I may  
have chimed in earlier.

asy and XeTeX just don't behave for me at the moment. I suspect I need  
to install a newer version of xdvipdfmx or something. Even this file  
isn't displayed properly when I execute xelatex, asy, xelatex:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{graphics,color}
\usepackage[inline]{asymptote}
\begin{document}
\begin{asy}
pair O=0;
draw(scale(2)*Label("N",.8red),O,10*N,linewidth(5mm));
\end{asy}
\end{document}

(The dot is cropped into a quarter circle.)

Trying your complete file produces labels that are very weirdly  
rotated. Do you know what I'm doing wrong?
