ASAN_OPTIONS=allocator_may_return_null=1 is ignored

[nolden]

I did set ASAN_OPTIONS=allocator_may_return_null=1 but I still get this output:

==72449==ERROR: AddressSanitizer: allocator is out of memory trying to allocate 0x7f09ece28d01 bytes

I met the same issue

[Mem2019]

For my case, it seems that this option is ignored when new [] is used for allocation.
