My own impression from a while ago is that the address sanitizer was not 
suitable for the class Emacs undumping, since its shadow memory won't 
survive dump-restore correctly. It sort of worked in some cases but it 
didn't work in general. I suppose it may be possible to work around the 
various issues, but as I recall it'd be a lot of trouble.
