This should not be a message printed on the console. There is only
one(?) internal user, and the argument is a multiple of 512, if I see
that correctly. So it's an internal error that wouldn't happen at all in
the moment. It just blows up the code size, and isn't even very descriptive.
If you *really* want to check that, you could try to use something like
builtin_constant_p, to create a compile-time error, or maybe use
debug(). But I would suggest to drop it completely, as it would be
pointless with the current code anyway.
The rest looks fine, thanks for adding that function.
Cheers,
Andre
