Thanks for report :)
the problem was fixed in monit cvs and will be part of next monit
release (planned for next week).
Btw. the htpasswd usage is described in monit manual
(http://www.tildeslash.com/monit/doc/manual.php#basic_authentication),
the default is cleartext, but you can set crypt or md5 (which is used in
the example configuration).

I had told monit to use an htpasswd file with md5sums in it.
However I just used "htpasswd" - I thought it uses md5sum by default,
but actually it's crypt. So the passwords were _not_ valid md5sums.
Unfortunately there are two asserts in util.c (line 1646 is the first
one). So monit just "mysteriously" died. I figured it out by
strace()ing it.
It would be good to change these asserts to perhaps spit out warning
message (bad MD5 password for user ...) but to _keep_ working.
Thanks,
Adrian
