This should be fixed for TL (and is most probably easy to do).

It can be installed with
--fonts=Asana-Math
but I'll rewrite some of that code to do font selection.

I believe that it has just never been properly implemented and tested
(which doesn't mean that it couldn't be).

Euler is also used in the magazine ... but of course it is up to
Khaled if he doesn't want to include the font. Khaled - would you at
least be ready to offer tar.xz file (one sufficient for direct
installation into TL) or put it into tlcontrib?
I would find it hard to tell whether MKIV should fall back to Type1
Euler or not, but I'm not sure that the sole lack of font in
distribution justifies this fallback. Even if the font is not perfect,
I don't see any reason why it couldn't be in TeX Live, even if with a
big warning that the metrics might change in future.
