Hi Paul,

I see that dfa.c now fails to compile on systems without static_assert
support, e.g., OS X 10.8.5 (even with gcc-4.9.0 20140324):

dfa.c:918:16: error: expected declaration specifiers or '...' before '(' token
 static_assert ((sizeof lonesome_lower / sizeof *lonesome_lower + 2

I've pushed the attached to make grep buildable again.

Subject: [PATCH] build: avoid OS X 10.8.5 build failure due to lack of
 static_assert

* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add assert-h, to accommodate the
new use of static_assert on systems lacking support for that construct.
Without this change, compilation of dfa.c failed on OS X 10.8.5 with
gcc-4.9.0 20140324.  We should be using gnulib's assert-h module,
regardless, for its nominal improved portability, since grep includes
assert.h and uses assert.
