[Vinay Sajip]

New submission from Vinay Sajip <vinay_sajip at yahoo.co.uk>:

Following

./configure --prefix=$HOME/.local --with-assertions

and then running make leads to an error:

$ make

make: *** [Objects/descrobject.o] Error 1

BTW, this happens even if Py_DEBUG=true is defined. System where the failure occurred: Ubuntu 16.04, 64-bit.
