Comment:

 Alright, time to close this unwieldy ticket. Thanks to everyone who
 followed along! I created the follow-up bugs #17505, #17506, #17507,
 #17508 and #17509 to track the remaining issues with our ASan builds.

 We investigated SoftBound CETS, too, but were unable to get it to compile
 Firefox even with the help of its designers. Alas, it is unusable at the
 moment.
