Does anyone else see this as perverse? I have to think hard about whether all the compilers are smart enough to optimize this away (probably, but maybe not). More importantly, it is obfuscated C and makes my stomach churn. This particular case introduces several lines for an assertion that is probably not worth the surrounding mess. Does anyone have a better way?
