Even though _Static_assert() is pretty robust for C code, it cannot work
correctly with C++ code. This is due to the fact that C++ template
parameters may contain commas that are not enclosed in parentheses. For
example:
static_assert(foo<int, int>::bar == baz, "...");
This causes _Static_assert to be called with an excessive number of
parameters. If you want to use static_assert in C++, just use a C++11
compiler.

__assert() is called when an assertion fails. After printing an error
message, it will call abort(). abort() never returns, hence it has the
__dead2 attribute. Also add this attribute to __assert().
