Yes, all standards require this for good reason. I don't know why 
Walter and Andrei thinks conforming C  can do anything else than 
ignoring assert in release builds:

«
If NDEBUG is defined as a macro name before the inclusion of this 
header, the assert() macro shall be defined simply as:

#define assert(ignore)((void) 0)
