Doing that automatically is a bit difficult, since you'll have to change
all makefiles that define tests.  To get object files with bounded
pointers just use `%.ob' instead of `%.o'.  You can then define
+link-bounded similar to +link-static and use it do define implicit rules
for `%-bp' and `%-bp.out'.
