[mythtv] mythtv and AddressSanitizer?

Has anyone tried to enable AddressSanitizer compilation of mythtv?

Would the right approach be to add -fsanitize=address to CFLAGS and/or
LDFLAGS?

I see configure has been modified to handle some ffmpeg toolchain-asan
options. Will that cause conflicts?

Any other gotchas?

I ask because I'm getting core dumps on a 32 bit laptop and the core
dumps aren't helpful. My plan is to install a 32 bit distro on a 64 bit
machine and test there.

TIA
