Asymptote 2.70_3 fails to build on macOS 13.0

[mcmara (Jack McMara)]

First of all, a simpla install hangs on applying patches:

$ sudo port install asymptote
--->  Computing dependencies for asymptote
--->  Fetching archive for asymptote
--->  Attempting to fetch asymptote-2.70_3.darwin_22.x86_64.tbz2 from https://ywg.ca.packages.macports.org/mirror/macports/packages/asymptote
--->  Attempting to fetch asymptote-2.70_3.darwin_22.x86_64.tbz2 from https://mse.uk.packages.macports.org/asymptote
--->  Attempting to fetch asymptote-2.70_3.darwin_22.x86_64.tbz2 from https://ema.uk.packages.macports.org/asymptote
--->  Fetching distfiles for asymptote
--->  Verifying checksums for asymptote
--->  Extracting asymptote
--->  Applying patches to asymptote

Adding more verbosity shows the problem:

$ sudo port -v install asymptote

The patch command above is somehow failing and silently waiting for use input. In fact:

$ cd "/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_macports_release_tarballs_ports_graphics_asymptote/asymptote/work/asymptote-2.70" && /usr/bin/patch -p0 < '/opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/macports/release/tarballs/ports/graphics/asymptote/files/patch-Makefile.diff'

Reversed (or previously applied) patch detected!  Assume -R? [y] 

Hitting enter terminates in an error:
