<br><tt><font size=2>I spent quite a lot of time looking at the output

<br><tt><font size=2>The only other thing I thought of suggesting was having
the ELFOSABI_NONE case ifdef'd so that lldb defaults to the platform that
it was built for - on the assumption that you are probably opening a core
from the machine you are on. (So on Linux ELFOSABI_NONE would mean Linux,
on FreeBSD it would mean FreeBSD.) That would have meant lldb behaved differently
depending on where it was compiled which seems wrong and would introduce
awkward to debug behaviour so I ended up talking myself out of it.</font></tt>
