Something I thought about but forgot to mention in the initial email:
is it worth sprinkling these macros with "unlikely()"?  I think that
compilers might assume the right thing automatically based on noticing
that ExceptionalCondition is noreturn ... but then again they might
not.  Of course we're not that fussed about micro-optimizations in
assert-enabled builds; but with so many Asserts in the system, it
might still add up to something noticeable if there is an effect.
