The average speedup is similar to what we saw with equivalent optimization in
clang. Strangely, 400.perlbench fails with a warning when built with trunk but
passes with this patch. I did not investigate this further yet.

If we are looking for greater speedup we need to perform more comprehensive 
research. I have two wild guesses (not supported by any data). 

#1 afaict, the asan pass happens in the middle of the gcc optimization flow.
imho it should happen as late as possible so that the instrumentation 
happens on fully optimized code. 
#2 asan speed is very sensitive to quality of regalloc. It would be interesting
(and useful anyway) to implement zero-offset-shadow
(https://code.google.com/p/address-sanitizer/wiki/ZeroBasedShadow)
and see how much it helps with performance. 
If more than clang's 5% -- we have issues with regalloc, otherwise see #1
