> +The netplug code uses the assert() macro in various places. In glibc
> +internally, assert() uses a function called __assert_fail() to print a
> +message and abort. Relying on internal glibc details, netplug
> +re-defines __assert_fail() in the hope that it will get called instead
> +of glibc internal version.
> +
> +This attempt:
> +
> + * Doesn't work with uClibc, which doesn't use any __assert_fail()
> +   function at all. It doesn't fail to build, but it is entirely
> +   useless.
> +
> + * Fails to build with musl, which also defines __assert_fail(), but
> +   with a different prototype.
> +
> +We simply remove the __assert_fail() implementation, so that the C
> +library implementation of assert() just does its normal work. The only
> +functionality lost is that the message is displayed on the standard
> +output rather than in netplug's logs (and this was only working with
> +glibc anyway).
