Isn't that a bit easy if you're shipping an old version that is no longer 
maintained? Seems the least one could do in this particular case is to ensure 
that in release mode the stuff is built with -DNDEBUG to deactivate the 
assert() side-effects (and "take it like a man" when that leads to other 
crashes and bug reports :) )
