Oh. Missed that.

My solution was going to be slightly different. I was going to enclose
the #ifdef'd code in a bare block and move the rte declaration inside
that block.

I think the difference between these cases and other cases of the
PG_USER_FOR_ASSERTS_ONLY macro is that these variables are only even
written to by assert-enabled code, whereas in the other cases the
variable is written to by non-assert-enabed code but only read by
assert-enabled code. The Microsoft compilers don't seem to mind that so
much.
