+1, Andres had some sanitizer flags in the works (stopped by a weird
problem to be resolved first), and 32 bit CI would clearly be good.
It also seems that ARM is now available to us via CI (either Amazon's
or a Mac), which IIRC is more SIGBUS-y about alignment than x86?
FTR CI reported that cpluspluscheck failure and more[1], so perhaps we
just need to get clearer agreement on the status of CI, ie a policy
that CI had better be passing before you get to the next stage. It's
still pretty new...
