I still feel we have a fairly complete set of replacements available
today (Address Sanitizer, valgrind for debugging; interposition instead
of __more_core &c), and that it makes sense to announce our planned
deprecation early.
It does, however, look rather unlikely I will have concrete to show by
the end of December 2016.
Final comments?
Thanks,
Florian
