Re: [PATCH] assert: Support types without operator== (int) [BZ #21972]

OK, but in that case the C version shouldn't use 'sizeof ((expr) ? 1 : 0)' either, right? As that would suppress the warning in the C case. So it sounds like your original patch was right after all (and sorry about the noise...).
