You can make it a bit faster by running both at once as SANITIZE=address,undefined. Since we expect both to pass cleanly, there's really no other complication; the user will either see errors (and correct them) or they won't. The signal of "passed with asan, but not ubsan" (or vice versa) is not that useful in practice. In the long run, I hope that "leaks" can run in the same way, but we're not there yet since there's a lot of selective test-running. In theory the regular linux test run is not necessary with this job, but I think the signal for "broke with/without sanitizers" is a little higher (and anyway, we have to run the regular suite on a zillion other platforms, too). -Peff
