On OSX 10.7.3, LLDB built from trunk at 152495.

I have a "pure" C++ program (i.e. neither Objective-C nor Objective-C++) built
with fsf-gcc-4.6.2 in std=c++0x mode.
While debugging it with LLDB, i frequently hit the 

assert (ivar_decl != NULL);

at line 1645 in SymbolFileDWARF::ParseChildMembers.

The code around is as follows:

if (prop_name != NULL)
{

    clang::ObjCIvarDecl *ivar_decl =
clang::dyn_cast<clang::ObjCIvarDecl>(field_decl);
    assert (ivar_decl != NULL);


    GetClangASTContext().AddObjCClassProperty (class_clang_type,
                                               prop_name,
                                               0,
                                               ivar_decl,
                                               prop_setter_name,
                                               prop_getter_name,
                                               prop_attributes);
}


I verified (debugging LLDB itself) that prop_name has indeed a value.
But of course the dyn_cast to clang::ObjCIvarDecl fails (there is no
ObjCIvarDecl in sight here) resulting in ivar_decl being NULL and hence the
assert kicks in.

I'm not good enough to understand why this code gets under the impression
there's some ObjC properties, and at the moment I've applied the following
patch to be able to keep debugging:

That seems to be working for now (I'm able to continue stepping through over
the instructions that were previously asserting), but I'd rather prefer this to
be checked and possibly solved in a more substantial way.
