There are some warnings about -Warray-bounds reported by both clang and
clang++, but passing -Wno-array-bounds does not fix the problem

Looks like AddressSanitizer.cpp explicitly ignores globals with "common"
linkage:
396 // Touch only those globals that will not be defined in other modules.
397 // Don't handle ODR type linkages since other modules may be built w/o
asan.
398 if (G->getLinkage() != GlobalVariable::ExternalLinkage &&
399 G->getLinkage() != GlobalVariable::PrivateLinkage &&
400 G->getLinkage() != GlobalVariable::InternalLinkage)
401 continue;
Kostya, what will break down if we add CommonLinkage here?
As per http://llvm.org/docs/LangRef.html#linkage_common:
common
"common" linkage is most similar to "weak" linkage, but they are used for
tentative definitions in C, such as "int X;" at global scope. Symbols with
"common" linkage are merged in the same way as weak symbols, and they may not
be deleted if unreferenced. common symbols may not have an explicit section,
must have a zero initializer, and may not be marked 'constant'. Functions and
aliases may not have common linkage.
Or maybe clang should not mark such global definitions as common?

We can not handle symbols with common linkage because such symbols
may be redefined in another file to have a different size.
