The interceptors in the sanitizers are extremely problematic from a ABI
compatibility perspective.  We can manage that if we bundle them with a
toolchain version they have been tested with, but this might not
necessarily be the case with an OpenJDK build that is not supplied by
the toolchain vendor.

My concern is that would basically freeze toolchain-internal interfaces
in stone because changing them would break existing OpenJDK binaries.

Thanks,
Florian
