Debug build is less informative than release build.
I like Antoine's idea to replace the assertion with Py_FatalError() in
debug mode.
I'm more concerned by bugs in Python itself. A fatal error/assertion should
be noticed quickly on buildbots which compile python in debug mode.
It's just fine if other people use the release mode and get an exception.

It's already what I do when running Python test suite with pyfailmalloc. I
modify manually SystemError constructor in the C code. A flag may help, but
you have to know that many tests expect SystemError (I don't remember which
ones).
