I agree that this is not the correct behavior -- I'll fix it. Thanks
for the report.
A better workaround, for now, would be to catch and hide the
exception (Jess errors are always Java exceptions:)
(try (assert-string "(foo bar)") catch)
-or-
(deffunction safe-assert-string(?string)
(try (assert-string ?string) catch))
