Thanks for spitting through the GDB manual so I don't have to!
I would've guessed something like this was possible with GDB,
but never bothered until now.

Not a phobos function, a compiler switch. In recent LDC and
DMD, you can use -checkaction=context and an attempt is made to
print the actual values involved in the assertion. It is still
young so you might still encounter bugs or limitations, but it
does the job really well for most asserts.
That looks promising. In the version I have installed (dmd
2.087.0) compilation crashes when using the flag and also
stdio.writeln, but playing around with the newest version in
run.dlang.io, it seems to work well with the cases I've tried,
cool!
