Maybe it would be good to have C99-standard assert available by default? E.g.:

    #if !defined(__STRICT_ANSI__) || (C99-defines)
    ...
    #endif

This may require some checking of the gcc version.

Note that gcc's C99 mode (-std=c99) didn't seem to do much, last time I tried
it. Maybe it's better in gcc 3.3.x?

Bye, Rich =]
