Subject: assert-h: Make static_assert work on Solaris 11.4
Date: Sun, 23 Oct 2022 16:47:12 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <34013532.ATrlOLLGV9@nimes> (raw)

The GNU sed prerelease testing [1] and the GNU texinfo prerelease testing [2]
have revealed compilation errors on Solaris 11.4, due to the use of
'static_assert'. The <assert.h> of Solaris 11.4 defines it in such a way
that it can only be invoked with 2 arguments. However, since 2022-09-13,
many Gnulib source files use 'static_assert' with 1 argument only.

[2] https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-texinfo/2022-10/msg00188.html

This patch fixes it.
