assertions and debuggers

We have recently started using assertions in our C code.
On the VAX, we have been able to redefine the assert macro to place
us into the VMS debugger at the point of error, rather than just
exiting the program.
My question is this. Is it possible to do a similiar thing to Unix C
and dbx? Any help in this area would be appreciated as we still have
the VMS die-hards telling us how terrible Unix is and how great VMS
is instead. Also, it would just help in general code development.
Thanks.
