I'd be happy to see this. I have C/C++ support in the julia debugger, but
it relies on re-parsing the headers from source, instead of reconstructing
things from DWARF. I don't care enough to actually split the DWARF->AST
functionality out of LLDB myself, but I'd be happy to use it and
collaborate it it's packaged in a reasonably reusable way.
