Ok, then we should pick something that is not confusing but reflect the fact they are for runtime error checking .. > > Why should be libasan linked statically by default? > There are a couple of reasons: 1) it makes running sanitized binary on remote machines which does not have libasan installed easier; 2) There is no guarantee that libasan API won't change, statically linking it in makes it less vulnerable to such changes. thanks, David > Jakub
