Hello,

I'm new to LLDB community and recently started to dive into LLDB.
I was running tests on my Ubuntu and noticed that sometimes lldb and
inferior process remained in process list after test run is completed:

 ps -elf | grep lldb

grep --color=auto lldb

As I found out, the problem is in lldbtest.py which improperly handles
exceptions. I've attached a patch to address this issue - please let me
know whether it looks okay.

     def tearDown(self):


Thank you.
