Regular POSIX programmers might scoff at the very idea that this is an issue, but I always found it rather tedious having to piss about just to get back to the actual place where the break occurred so that you can inspect the state. The whole point of an assert is that you don't expect the condition to happen, so the last thing I want is to make things any more fiddly than necessary when it all goes wrong.
