[tlbuild] Some issues building asy

I have a script to build TL (I am afraid I could not test pretest this year...) that run

[...]
    ./Build --enable-xindy CLISP=$clisp_builddir/clisp || exit 1

echo
echo "==> Building Asymptote"
echo

cd utils/asymptote

./configure --prefix=/tmp/asyinst --enable-texlive-build \
            CXXFLAGS=-std=c++11 || exit 1
make -j6
make check
[...]

I discovered that `make check` fails:

  ../asy -dir ../base string/*.asy
Cannot execute kpsewhich
...

If I shortcircuit the current TL installation:

   mv texlive texlive-2022

So the question is: Should I redefine in the script the PATH to include tlsource/inst/BINARIES or it is better to install first TL2023 using the custom binaries just built?

TIA
