[boost] Re: assert in inline function w/o ODR violation

Why not:

namespace boost {
  namespace {
    template <class Derived, class Base>
->  static
    inline Derived polymorphic_cast(Base* x) {
       assert( dynamic_cast<Derived>(x) != 0 );  // detect logic error
       return static_cast<Derived>(x);
    }
  }
}

or am I missing something?
