Thanks for the example, good idea. Yes, the diagonal line is OK,
that's what my asymptote example creates, as the code I posted doesn't
actually make use of the array (its mere presence is enough to trigger
the error).

Is it just me, or are there other people who think that this kind of
approach is wrong? In my view, per-user configuration can affect
the look-and-feel of org-mode, the paths, etc., but I think having
options that affect the result in any way (most babel options, in
fact) should be configurable from within the Org file itself.
After all, most work I do (now in Org) is supposed to be passed
to other people who can then continue doing this work. I can't
expect them to change "global" settings just so they can reproduce
my output.
I love most software I use exactly because it doesn't rely too
much on global (per-user) configuration. I think Org should also
reduce the set of global options to the absolute minimum.
