 If setenv PATH "/usr/local/texlive/2010/bin/x86_64-linux:${PATH}"

1) % asy

returns

2) With the same PATH

% /usr/local/texlive/2009/bin/x86_64-linux/asy

 returns exactly the same errors (with 2010)

setenv PATH "/usr/local/texlive/2010/bin/x86_64-linux:${PATH}"


3) If however
setenv PATH "/usr/local/texlive/2009/bin/x86_64-linux:${PATH}"

both %asy
i.e. %/usr/local/texlive/2009/bin/x86_64-linux/asy

and

/usr/local/texlive/2010/bin/x86_64-linux/asy

do not not return any errors.

 Looks strange as is not /usr/local/texlive/2009/bin/x86_64-linux/asy
load 2009  files despite path?
