So which devil do you want? gcc4? clang? gcc5? It's hard to tell what
you wish to see happen from your statements.

FYI
I'm compiling rpm with clang 3.5 atm on CentOS6/x86_64 and running
regression tests like
        Install OWL3 in a chroot.

Several ancient bugs were instantly identified using -fsanitize=address.

And leak detection with ASAN_OPTIONS is far far faster than using
valgrind. Yes the leakchecker "works" only on x86_64.

with -fsanitize=address everywhere and always.

On to adding OPENMP to clang-3.5 to see how good the thread deadlock
detector atucally is.
