It turns out that this happens in tests using `internal_fork` (e.g. invoking `llvm-symbolizer`): unlike most other Linux targets, which use `clone`, Linux/sparc64 has to use `__fork` instead.  While `clone` doesn't trigger `pthread_atfork` handlers, `__fork` obviously does, causing the hang.

To avoid this, this patch disables `InstallAtForkHandler` and lets the ASan tests run to completion.

Tested on `sparc64-unknown-linux-gnu`.
