Sorry, this got lost in my inbox.

assert(false) sends SIGABRT to the process.  The default behavior is to
dump a core file that can be analyzed later with GDB.

Your system must have core dumps enabled (i.e. ulimit -c unlimited).
Also, various pieces of software like systemd's coredumpctl can
influence where and how core dumps are stored.

But in short, an assertion failure produces a core dump.
