Investigate building TBB with SoftBound or AddressSanitizer

We should see if we can get TBB to build with SoftBound+CETS, a memory-safety extension to LLVM: http://acg.cis.upenn.edu/softbound/

Apparently to get full benefit we may need to annotate the Mozilla allocator, but we should be able make a test build without that annotation (it will just treat the entire malloc pool as one allocation).

SAFECode is apparently an extension to SoftBound, but it has only been rebased to LLVM 3.2 (where as SoftBound has been kept up to date to LLVM 3.4): http://safecode.cs.illinois.edu/
