Don't define static_assert for C++.

Even though _Static_assert() is pretty robust for C code, it cannot work
correctly with C++ code.  This is due to the fact that C++ template
parameters may contain commas that are not enclosed in parentheses. For
example:

	static_assert(foo<int, int>::bar == baz, "...");

This causes _Static_assert to be called with an excessive number of
parameters.  If you want to use static_assert in C++, just use a C++11
compiler.
