I have done this (in 2008); just needs some more polishing: mainly/only
(?) reworking the t/verify.h branch that you didn't like:
Âinclude/verify.h: New file, from gnulib.Â, providing compile-time
assert-like macros.  I think the conclusion was to use a simpler
alternative for glibc, instead of importing gnulib's file.

GrÃÃe,
 Thomas
