But, if the only "gotcha" to having both of them be in the same enum is that it's up to the programmer to make sure he's using the right value in the context, then perhaps it's not the end of the world.


Although unlikely, I don't think there is an inherent reason lldb could not run there, so yeah, I think one list is better.

I think we should let people add targets when they need to, so let's leave these out for now. As I said, right now we treat android as a flavour of linux. When we change that we can add `android` and `linux_all` (or something like that) to the list.
