+/* In the past, Bison defined aver to simply invoke abort in the case of

+   were too heavyweight and could be disabled too easily.  See

+   However, normal assert output can be helpful during development and

+   <assert.h>'s assertions are significantly heavyweight.  Finally, if

+   whether it's our responsibility to stop them.  See discussion
+   starting at
+   <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bison-patches/2009-09/msg00013.html>.
+
+   For now, we use assert but we call it aver throughout Bison in case
