Yet the author wrote an Assert here (over a decade ago), so rather than blindly
changing that it seems reasonable to motivate a patch like this with an
investigation on what the Assert means here.  The fact that Coverity complains
is far from conclusive evidence that something is wrong.
This is evidence that we do not have reports about this bug.

Before that can be stated it needs to be determined if this is a bug, this
thread has not done that yet.
