An alternative (and perhaps better) solution is to make the epsilon 
depend on the magnitude of the values involved. For example, when 
testing triangles/planes/rays before, I've used an epsilon like 
(max(abs(components)) * 1e-6).

Note that the specific assertion, though, just says "the normal should 
be normalized." If you generate a normal that isn't normalized, it might 
be better to just normalize it, rather than accept normals that are off 
the required length by one whole percent.
