For some reason this creates an access violation:
Object o;
assert(o);
Apparently it's by design. This expression is calling o's invariant, it
does not check for null as I'd expect. But o is null so calling
invariant just crashes.
According to an old bug report, things have been working like this for
a long time.

It works according to spec:

I wonder how many time I wrote the above assertion thinking I was just
checking for null...
