LGTM.

I'm terribly sorry it took me so long to get to it =/. Semantic change
looks fine to me as well, and I don't think there's an easy way (for now)
to learn whether we're still constructing virtual table from UBSan runtime.
I'll ask Hans to include this into 3.7. Let me know if I should submit it
for you.

Thanks for tracking this down!
