I agree.

hm, sending bug report is not my favorite hobby :)

> That said, if you can figure out what is causing the problem,

well, I know:

assert( expression && "my way to kick out gcc from SuSE 9 :)" )

BTW, the following

(expression && "my way to kick out gcc from SuSE 9 :)")

is ok for gcc. So the problem comes from composition this argument with assert itself.

I see. The following ugly workaround helps:

#ifdef NDEBUG
  bool b = getOption(ArgName) == Opt ;
  assert( b && "Arg not in map!");
#endif

Well, one could camouflage this :)
