I have told the people that are generating these about the issue and they will fix it, but we have minidump files out in the wild that don't set linux as the OS correctly.
1. any idea where this minidumps originate from?
2. should we raise some kind of signal when we go down this path? print an warning or at least verbose logging?

Comment at: source/Plugins/Process/minidump/ProcessMinidump.cpp:179
+    auto platform_sp = target.GetPlatform();
+    if (platform_sp && !platform_sp->IsCompatibleArchitecture(arch, false, nullptr)) {

Nice catch/fix in that case!

Just curious: It still seems a bit surprising to me to have the target mutated by the process object - is that how it's normally done in other cases?
