The gcc packages hard-disable the sanitize flag on hardened profiles, making the sanitizer options unavailable on hardened systems. I believe the intention was that the sanitizers are incompatible with grsecurity and hardened systems were supposed to be run with grsec-patched kernels. But given that grsec is no more I think this is no longer relevant.

But given that grsec is no more I think this is no longer relevant. Mask is present in hardened features: profiles/features/hardened/package.use.mask:sys-devel/gcc -hardened sanitize but entry links no bug. I assume it's caused by bug #458706. Reassigning to hardened@ to check on current/future status.
