>> Have you tried running with KVM?

OK, I ran a UBSAN kvm guest on a UBSAN host and I ran trinity inside the
guest. It all appears to work as usual.

I really don't have the knowledge to determine what we should exclude,
but I'm very very happy to respin with a greater list of excludes if you
think that's a good idea.

Regards,
Daniel
