I was talking about this with Ed and some of the other FreeBSD folks
when I started my own efforts on LLDB for NetBSD. I think the best
approach is to start with the patch as is and slowly refactoring from
that. IMO it is better here to have a basic working state first.

The other point we agreed on is that the FreeBSD code and the Linux code
can often be more shared to, so there is a lot of room for improvements
in any direction. I'd prefer to avoid the classic "the enemy of good"
situations here.
