One other solution - which doesn't require a language change - would be
to use exception for ICE (which are rare anyway)
Would be interesting to check all usage of `assert` and see:
a) how many of them protect from something truly bad
b) are there many "real" asserts (i.e. not assert(0)) in general
I'd say quite a lot:
grep -nR "assert\b*(" src/*.d | grep -v "static assert" | grep -v
"assert\b*(0)" | wc -l
1083
It is hard to investigate how many prevents bug, but I had a quick look
and it's not a neglectible amount sadly.
