PCSB doesn't contain an assert. It simply assumes that the first token is the opening brace and consumes it, storing the returned source location, which is then passed to ActOnCompoundStatement as the location of the lbrace.

You could just manipulate Tok as stored in Parser, but it would be better IMO to just capture the source location yourself and pass it on.

After reading the existing code more carefully, I still don't understand how you got to where you are without tripping over an assertion.
