Yeah, we can't include <stdlib.h> here, but it should be OK to add a manual declaration of free (as I did in bf5a75...) -- there was already a manual declaration of malloc, and free doesn't even need size_t.

I think this should be fine as is; in C11, _Static_assert is a keyword / special form, so it's safe to use without <assert.h>.  IIUC the change in C23 is to make static_assert also available without <assert.h>?
