/* Each of these macros verifies that its argument R is a nonzero
constant expression. To be portable, R's type must be integer (or
boolean). Unlike assert, there is no run-time overhead.
There are two macros, since no single macro can be used in all
contexts in C. verify_true (R) is for scalar contexts, where it
may be cast to void if need be. verify (R) is for declaration
contexts, e.g., the top level.
The symbols verify_error_if_negative_size__ and verify_function__
are private to this header. */
