I understand that you are looking for a workaround in llvm, but it's not
really an llvm issue. There is a patch available for this issue:

http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2013-12/msg00479.html

This means that you would have to update your kernel headers.

Someone else has posted another hack for libsanitizer here:

http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gcc.devel/133181

#define new renamed_new
#include <sys/vt.h>
#undef new


thx

Vikas.
