This can be (potentially) be done in GRExprEngine, just like we handle  
Null dereferences.

That or EvalLoad().  An out-of-bounds error occurs on a load or store.

That's fine.  The default behavior is that all accesses are valid.

Perhaps, but I think all the logic can be divided between the  
StoreManager and GRExprEngine.  The StoreManager is responsible for  
reasoning about what is valid memory, and GRExprEngine handles loads/ 
stores.  What would there be left to put in a specific transfer  
function?
