I actually tried to work other way around -- get all known buggy systems
fixed:
1) Debugging Python version: bug acknowledged, v2.5 fixed, v2.4 waiting
(http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1483133&group_id=5470&atid=105470)
2) Fedora: >=v5 fixed, will be backported to version 4 also
(https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=192592)

If this approach is not satisfactionary and assertion predetection is
still requested, only solution I see is to catch signal SIGABRT, set
flag, longjmp back and report error.
But I really don't like it.
