When you run "configure" before "make", use "--enable-cassert".  The 
normal trio for working on the PostgreSQL code is:

./configure --enable-depend --enable-cassert --enable-debug

Generally the only reason to build as a developer without asserts on is 
to do performance testing.  They will slow some portions of the code 
down significantly.
