I'm aware of Pizlix - it's a good project/idea that needs to go mainstream; as you mention, memory safety is currently limited to userland (still a huge improvement over traditional unsafe userland.)
Note also that it uses fil-c rather than clang with -fbounds-safety. I believe fil-c requires fewer code changes than -fbounds-safety.
