I understood what you said )
 
I think for removing the such code «the global code optimization» is required.
 
Usually (as I understand) «the global code optimization» is used to build a final binaries where all debug checks already are removed )
 
I will replace these two asserts with *newlocale_path_ptr = NULL in v10.
 
> The one after __argz_add_sep does not get optimized out, either, but  that's correct, and I think the assert is valid.
 
I will save this assert.
 
Thanks,
Dmitry Kovalenko.
