Build failed with address sanitizer

I successfully built SWI-Prolog/swipl:

cmake -G Ninja ..
ninja
ctest -j8

However, I cannot build it with the address sanitizer (ASAN):

cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Sanitize -G Ninja ..
ninja

The cmake log is cmake-log.txt.

The ninja log is:

I'm on macOS 10.14.6 (Mojave).

:cry: Seems a bug in the MacOS toolchain. Building with ASAN compiles exactly the same code as without, so if it compiles without it should compile with. Best I can suggest is to either try GCC or use a Linux machine. If it is really a memory error that is detectable by AddressSanitizer it is probably platform independent.

I get the same error with cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug + make builds for macOS. I have seen this via GitHub Actions runners for both macos-latest and macos-11.
