NSAssert no longer displaying reason in console

- (id) init {
    NSAssert(NO, @"Making a nameless dog is forbidden.");
    return nil;
}

Here's what used to happen (iPhone 4.3 simulator) when I hit that assert:

2011-10-24 15:43:37.626 p262namedDog[3505:207] *** Assertion failure in -[Dog init], /path/to/Dog.m:20
2011-10-24 15:43:37.689 p262namedDog[3505:207] *** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInternalInconsistencyException', reason: 'Making a nameless dog is forbidden.'
*** Call stack at first throw:
[etc.]

Here's what happens now (iPhone 5.0 simulator):

2011-10-24 15:47:15.498 p262namedDog[3680:207] *** Assertion failure in -[Dog init], /path/to/Dog.m:20

That's all! Dude, where's my reason? And without a printing of the reason, what's the good of the assert? (And hey, I wouldn't mind seeing that lovely call stack, too.)

This is exactly the same project in exactly the same Xcode; all I did was switch destination between simulators.
