61 * * sizeof() ensures that the expression is not evaluated at all, so
62 * its side-effects don't happen. That is to be consistent with the
63 * usual behaviour of debug-only constructs, such as assert().
64 *
65 * * `((_expr), 0)` uses the comma operator to swallow the actual type
66 * of `(_expr)`. This is to prevent VLAs from triggering evaluation.
67 *
68 * * `(void)` explicitly ignores the result of `(_expr)` and sizeof() so
69 * no "unused value" warning appears.
