        <pre>Consider I have a C++ file at: /Users/alex/Dev/project/main.cpp

and I compiled the file there with:

clang++ -g -O0 ./main.cpp

Now if I try to set a breakpoint with:

br set -f /Users/alex/Dev/project/main.cpp -l 10

the breakpoint will work.
But if I try to set a breakpoint with:

br set -f /Volumes/Macintosh\ HD/Users/alex/Dev/project/main.cpp -l 10

the breakpoint will not work, because it differs from the DWARF written
filepath.

Machintosh HD is a symlink to /

$ ls -al /Volumes/
lrwxr-xr-x   1 root  admin      1 Dec 23 07:40 Macintosh HD -> /

Should lldb maybe consider using the canonical path to a given file, when
setting a breakpoint?
