Thanks for pointing this out! My first patch didn't really take this into account, so it didn't work properly. I've made some changes to make it work, although I'm not very familiar with these parts of LLDB yet, so I'm not sure whether this approach is how it should be implemented.

Also I've noticed that LLDB's expression evaluator is not perfect with these lookups, e.g. it can find global variables from other scopes if there's no better candidate (not sure if this is a bug of a feature):

  -> 2    int main() {};
  (lldb) p x
  (int) $0 = 1
