Comment (by anonymous):

 I was not 100% correct. In this particular case BOOST_CB_ENABLE_DEBUG
 (that depends on NDEBUG or BOOST_CB_DISABLE_DEBUG) should not affect
 sizeof. You can use it to do some additional checks, but sizeof() should
 always be the same.

 NDEBUG is quite common macro. It should never affect sizeof.
