GeomView is a license for free to most educational institutions
application (no, I don't know if it is GPL, PD, or something else)
which is developed at the Geometry Center of the University of Minnesota.

It permits one to
experiment with a variety of "complicated" geometrical objects in real
time with a full GUI interface and view of the object (rotation,
translation, ... ); one can create objects in it.  It was originally
designed for the Silicon Graphics *proprietary* windowing system, but
has been ported to X.  I have seen it run on Silicon Graphics and
SunOS (Solaris 2, I think).  We could probably arrange a port.
