--- Comment #9 from Iain Sandoe <iains at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
So.. this is somewhat puzzling.
Essentially, it seems that on macOS and Linux (at least) currently
ASAN_INTERCEPT___CXA_RETHROW_PRIMARY_EXCEPTION is set unconditionally to "on"
(for any target that has ASAN_HAS_EXCEPTIONS).
libsupc++'s implementation doesn't include this, so ..
.. the mystery is not so much why it's failing sometimes on macOS - so much as
why it's not failing always, when the c++ library is libstdc++ (and also on
Linux).
Hypothesis, could be that since the search is being carried out in the flat
namespace, any library that happens to pull in libc++ (as a dependent) will
cause the libc++abi version of __cxa_rethrow_primary_exception to become
visible in that flat namespace.
using the following hack the results go from wholesale fail on C to a handfull
of fails and on c++ similarly.
I guess this could be a dyld bug too - if the lookup is supposed to be a weak
reference (not checked).
.. obviously, this is incomplete .. it just jams the hook off (not looked at
the configuration stuff yet, or whether there's a weak symbol problem).
[this appears distinct from failure mode on Darwin10 and also distinct from
some fails caused by missing symbolization (atos) on m64 / darwin14]
