There was actually some ping-pong about this issue: d885c9dad (Keith Whitwell) introduced it, 7a2271c65 (José Fonseca) removed it , and f0ba7d897 (Keith Whitwell) introduced it again.
Given this I would give some preference to not to forward standard assert instead, but don't really see it as an issue to change debug_assert. With a31d289de6091 José Fonseca introduced p_debug.h which would eventually become u_debug,h, and there assert is already channeled to debug_assert, but it is not clear why it was seen as problematic to used the standard C assert in 2008.
