    Hi Niels,

    I can confirm the issue, alas it was already fixed in Git master (by
    Evgeny) in October. We should indeed make a new release...

    (Note: the assertion was basically wrong, so when compiling without
    assertions means that there is no harm from the issue.)

    Happy hacking!
