    sandbox: Allow use with fragile hardening
    
    When building with --enable-fragile-hardening, add or relax Linux
    seccomp rules to allow AddressSanitizer to execute normally if the
    process terminates with the sandbox active.
    
    Further resolves issue 11477.

+  o Minor bugfixes (fragile-hardening, sandbox):
+    - When building with --enable-fragile-hardening, add or relax Linux
+      seccomp rules to allow AddressSanitizer to execute normally if the
+      process terminates with the sandbox active. This has the side
+      effect of disabling the filtering of file- and directory-open
+      requests on most systems and dilutes the effectiveness of the
+      sandbox overall, as a wider range of system calls must be
+      permitted. Fixes bug 11477; bugfix on 0.2.5.4-alpha.
