The difference is in the interceptors of new/delete C++ operators.  In ASan, we have `INTERCEPTOR(void *, _Znwm, size_t size)`, which is just a regular interceptor, and in the static library, it doesn't work (just as all other interceptors).  But in TSan, we declare a custom operator with `void *operator new(__sanitizer::uptr size)`, which **works even in the static library**.  The `TEST()` macro from GTest expands to a static initializer that calls `new`, which gets intercepted and TSan will initialize at this point.  We'd need to call `DisableReexec()` before any other initializers.

One solution would be to put the static initializer that calls `DisableReexec()` to a file that's first in the CMake source file list.  That's quite fragile, I don't think we want to depend on the order of file lists in CMake.

Converting the new/delete operators to be the same as ASan uncovers some test failures and needs more changes/fixes.  One thing that breaks is demangling in stack trace, as things like `wrap__Znwm` will appear (instead of `operator new`), because the `wrap_` prefix prevents demangling.  This bug currently exist in ASan as well, but no testcase covers it (on OS X).  But TSan expects this to work in a few lit tests already.
