Yeah. I agree it's not a problem we face right now, but the reproducer scenario showed that we can get into a situation where we're not testing what we thing we are. I took me and Jim a little time to understand why that was happening and I think this is a small price to pay to avoid that in the future and guarantee some sanity.

And I have a feeling they don't actually fail the check-lldb command. I don't know if this is due to something we've done, or if it's just how the python unittest framework works...

Okay, I was on the fence between using the unittest2 assert method or the built in Python assertion. The latter might be a better fit.
