Thanks for the idea; it is certainly a step in the right direction.
However, would you mind resubmitting with some additional nits fixed?

We should be promoting the use of AS_HELP_STRING on this line,

> -    [AC_MSG_RESULT([no])
> -     AC_DEFINE(NDEBUG, 1, [Define to 1 if assertions should be disabled.])],
> +    [ if test "x$enableval" != xyes; then

this could be done with AS_IF, although that is not a necessity,

> +    AC_MSG_RESULT([no])
> +     AC_DEFINE(NDEBUG, 1, [Define to 1 if assertions should be disabled.])

we should promote proper m4 quoting on this line,

> +    else
> +    AC_MSG_RESULT([yes])
> +    fi ],

and trailing whitespace is smashed by autom4te, so it doesn't make sense
to document it.

>      [AC_MSG_RESULT(yes)])

You might want to simplify by doing a single
AC_MSG_RESULT([$enable_assert]) after the conclusion of AC_ARG_ENABLE,
rather than repeating a hardcoded the yes/no in each branch.
