 That's a very corner case and as far as I understand it that's in the 
workaround-for-workaround category (either we're doing something wrong, or 
the sanitizers shouldn't require options that make them work just as a 
side-effect). So I take it this problem is sufficiently solved either by 
ignoring it, or by adding a check to --enable-ld ?
