the lsan alloc symbols are statically linked into the application so
they override the extern calls in shared objects eg in libstdc++.so
if you linked a c++ application and if the lsan initialization somehow
called into libstdc++.so (it is not supposed to, but lsan is c++ code
so you can never know) and free is called there then you'd get the
observed behaviour. (this scenario has a few ifs and does not explain
why the specific commit broke it, but i dont see other way now)
it would be easier to know what happens if you put a breakpoint
on __sanitizer::CheckFailed and printed a backtrace
(or replace that code with __builtin_trap and rebuid compiler_rt
that way to get a proper core dump)
