Why do we do this?
Because all asserts must be completely removed in -release
1. They aren't removed, they are replaced with a nearly useless segfault.
2. If we are going to put something in there instead of "assert", why
not just throw an error?
Effectively:
assert(0, msg)
becomes a fancy way of writing (in any mode, release or otherwise):
throw new AssertError(msg);
This is actually the way I thought it was done.
