It's a matter of taste, and I won't insist at all, just mention that I
didn't write those two assert()s as separate statements :)
Namely, with a conjunction (P1 && P2 && ... && Pn), you have the
possibility to spell the assertion as:
assert(P1);
assert(P2);
...
assert(Pn);
And, if any one of those fails, you will know *which one*. Because the
line number in the "assertion failed" message will tell you.

"No interest in language lawyering", perhaps? :)

I think I'm ready to give my R-b for the final missing piece. (Not sure
if others would like to comment as well, on v4.) Your call :)
